Local to Charlotte

Looking for a place locally that I can take the intake mainfolds from my son's truck and have them dunked in a tank to clean them up. Any suggestions as to a reputable outfit?

Thx

Any good machine shop or engine builder should be able to clean them out. I can dig up a few references if you need.

I had a new ring gear put on the flywheel for my old 78 bronco at Carolina Crankshaft up on Graham St, they did a good job and i think only had a day or so turn around time.
