Perfect. Thanks Matt for all that info. I had read about that GM top end cleaner. Might have to check that out. The diesel thing kinda sounds scary, but might be cool to try. You just add it in with the existing oil? And thanks for that link Jim. I'll check it out.

Carp, did I say top end cleaner? That's for the combustion chambers and valves, like the seafoam water torture thing. GM also makes a crankcase cleaner that's really good too. They also have an excellent rubber conditioner for doorseals and the like.

Had another thought with regard to the sludging. The whiteblocks are known for plugging up the PCV system at the best of times, have you checked for good negative pressure on that system?
