Just picked it up my 5.3 today at lunch. Got off work start to tear it down, Wow sludge every where. I'm glad I'm doing a rebuild. What would be best to clean that all out?

Take it to an engine shop and have them bake it. It will burn all that crap out. Afterwards have them line bore the crankshaft bores and bore the cylinders out since that will guaranty you have a good block to start with. Baking the engine to degrease is about the only way to get rid of the sludge/parifin buildup.
