Carbon on valves would be the least of my worries on a light duty, 1500-series pickup with 357k provided the engine still ran halfway decently. Everything else is likely toast, on its way out, or has already been mauled to death by cheap mechanics and backyard fixes. Those kinds of trucks nickel and dime a guy to death.

 

I wouldn't think having the top end cleaned once or twice would be a big deal on a 5.3 but maybe it is?

Was commenting on the engine labs article on lifter failure.
