I am getting ready to start installing all of my new recently bought part for my 350 ci 4 bolt main block. What tips can you offer in regards to whether I should wash the cam, crank, springs, rockers arms etc. before I actually install them in the engine. I thought someone had told me to use a degreaser/carburator cleaner on the new parts just to get the remnants of the manufacturing process off of the parts before installation.
Does this make any sense?

Also, this next question is a result of this being my first complete engine rebuid.
After I got the block back from the manchine shop with new cam bearnings/freeze plugs, I made the mistake of deburring the cam gallery. Granted there wasn't a lot of deburring I did, but it was done. I have since cleaned the block with a kerosene/degreaser mixtue shot through a air hose at 90psi. I am confident this block clean, however I am just a little concerned about the "grooved"cam bearnings in which the oil goes around the outside of the bearing. I do not want to have to remove these things. Should I be overly concerned about this?

Thanks,
Robert D
