As for the manifold I just poured Acetone in it and let it set for a while upside down on my bench and then worked it with an assortment of brushes I got from Harbor Freight. This was after I submerged the manifold for 2 days in simple green commercial grade degreaser. This combination seemed to work pretty good.

Same here... The plastic is glass reinforced nylon that resists to Acetone without issues. I would have been a bit worried in using acetone one the swirl flaps since they have rubber gaskets: both Buna and Viton don't really do well with acetone.
