Cleaned up my engine

Hello my friends, finally i had the time to clean it, i combined my traditional method with what Vince the Iowa kid and some of you said about cleaning a LT1 engine. I sprayed some water over it (part by part), applied Simple Green and brushed it, and finally covered it with armorall, lefting it overnight. These are the results. Took about 3 hours. Not a superior cleaning procedure, but at least it's way better that what it was.
Attached 1 before pic and 2 after i cleaned it.

I saw the title to the thread and then saw just the first picture and was thinking what's wrong with this guy?
