I have a clean white, original '65 LeMans hood I'd sell.. Been holding onto it so I run my bathtub manifold with a scoop.

Any rings/ pins?

Agreed. Don't know of any way to get sludge off besides scraping off or hot tank. Or letting dry out and flaking off. Will keep an eye on oil pressure and run 15w40 or thinner.
