Removing Engine Sludge

Does anyone have any tool or fluid or technique they can recommend for
removing sludge and varnish from inside of an engine without disassembling it
completely?  The engine (' 88 Ford 302)  runs very well otherwise, just noisey
lifters and crud on the bottom of the oil pan.  My understanding is that
flushing fluids will "pick up" the sludge and plug the pump screen and other
orifices.    Any ideas?
Thanks,
Greg Donati
