SLP Longtubes>Clean or Leave it

When I traded in my Z28 for the SS I kept all my mods. Now I am just wondering before I put the headers on should I clean out the carbon or just leave it. Cleaning it isn't a problem just a pain in the a$$. What do you think!

For the small amount of carbon that's inside your headers I'd just leave it, as soon as you fire up the engine you're going to have a little carbon inside them again anyways. JMO
