sea foam

Hey Members,
Just dropped my oil pan on my LT1 and noticed a lot of
varnish stains on interior block surface. I never used sea foam before, but
do you think this additive is effective on these engines? P.S no other motor
issues at all.

Hmmm not sure I've heard people's different opinions on seafoam,good n bad. In my opinion I don't think too much good things about it

There is a video on u-tube on this when a guy took a brand new lawn mower out of the box and ran sea foam through it.Good watching.If it ain't broke,well you know the rest.(Hope this helps.

Re: sea foam

There is a pretty good video by Chris Fix on YouTube where he uses a camera to look into the cylinders to see the results.

Re: sea foam

you can take seafoam and unplug brake booster let it suck from there and it cleans the upper system valves etc works very well

Re: sea foam
