Today I pulled the engine out of my Gt parts car to put it in my coupe. I obtained a Cobra intake and decided to swap out the factory EFI intake. When I took the intake off I discovered some type of buildup in the valley where the lifters sit. It was like a oil bulid up that I could scrape chucks of it out. The engine ran fine at the time I pulled it out! and I plan to replace the oil pan and pump while out. Do I have a deeper problem with this build up material???? I need to know so I can continue on in the right direction. I do not want to spend money twice.
