best way to clean motor?

i have a big block but i decided to pull the 350 out of the 35, i will run it for now and build the bb later down the road. the 35 is going under the knife sometime so it wont need a motor for a while.

35x16.5x15 boggers on 15x14 weld road hawks, they go on my dodge, right now it has 15x10 weld road hawks with bfg 33x12.5 mud terrains, boggers got a little hard on stuff to run every day.

Soapy water and a brush. But my tip is ditch that flex fan, and get yourself a nice cluch fan. It's more quite, runs cooler on the highway, and won't break off and fly through your hood!!!

How to clean? part II

I'll be pulling my 400 to steam clean/degrease it before I swap on the TPI but there must be more prep before the paint goes on... anyone... Bueller...
