Not much to clean. The cuality and the detail are great. This engine brings everithing. The only thing is you need to use sanding paper and a flat surfece to level the engine block. I will post more pics of the engine out of the bag... Very Happy

Nice paint.
Slowly - While being more detailed Gibson engines are more work than a styrene kit engine and i've had a few pinholes & minor flash to clean up (but nothing major). Biggest gripe with them is that the extractors are often moulded with the backs flat.
However, we can always build our own out of tube, rod, solder etc can't we.
