you can but no need for it. dont waste money or effort.
you can try : shortning OCI , using oil with more detergent, better oil filter , engine flush.

can a PYB 5W-30 with Puralator P1 do the trick leave it there for the whole summer?

if your so worried do penzoil ultra with pur synthetic.
PYB and P1 are best combo tho for dino, its what I use with confidence.
your engine probably cleaner than 60% of cars on road. dont worry about it

that engine is just about done. must buy a new vehicle. must use Pennzoil ultra and post pics.
but seriously based only on what I can see I agree with what others have said, clean engine in my book.

Absolutely! As long as the cast iron parts are grey inside it is more then perfect. I bet if You would remove the head(s) the stock hone lines would be still visible.

Thats like your mother always telling you make sure you have clean underwear on because you never know when you might have to go to the hospital. That brown skid mark in there is just terrible how you go around with such a dirty valvetrain. And post a pic for us to see, i'm sorry i ever looked
Just kidding looks perfect.

Since your the only one who knows your vehicle, run some MMO for the last 1500 miles till the end of the OCI.
If you think that your vehicle really needs a cleaning.....you could try some Kreen. One pint in the gas and 1 pint in the sump...run that for the summer.
FWIW....my engine, from what I could see from the oil fill hole with the baffle, looked very clean. Then I ran 2 treatments of Kreen and I was shocked at the dirt that Kreen found in the oil galleys, ring pack etc....
IMO...You should know your vehicle best....or if you don't....there are options to use to satisfy your curiosity and clean the engine well.

That looks really good-and PYB has been shown to be one of the best inexpensive dino oils for cleaning.
Excellent!! (in my best Mr. Burns voice)
Continue using a good oil and regular OCI's , that engine is very clean and should be good to go for a long time yet .
BTW , ignore anyone saying the engine may be dirty deeper inside or you need to run an additive to clean it out . That logic is absolute rubbish and the thinking of someone with a bad case of clean engine OCD
