Intake manifold? No... it's plastic and does not see any carbon buildup....it does not get blasted....only the section of the head where the intake valve resides.

Not to sound like a total noob but is a walnut blast the same or as thorough as a intake cleaning job done at Clem? Just seeing if a walnut blast will get it just as clean as the pic shown above is. Sorry if it's a noob question.

Is there any difference in this procedure between 335 gassers and 335 oil burners?

+1 for Luther at Flemings. Had my done a couple of weeks ago with 55k miles. My random misfire seems to have disappeared. Car runs great.
Luther also hooked me up with a great deal on new wheels (AG M550s).
