Some of you may know, that my attention to detail is a little crazy and excessive sometimes, and most dont know that when my attention to detail gets out of control, the amount of labor i put into it gets out of hand aswell. And many have probably seen that ill polish anything.
So, first my tranny, I plugged all the holes and what not and sand blasted it with kind of blasting media, aluminum carbide if im not mistaken. It looks good now. Yadda yadda its obviously been sand blasted and we have been talking about what to paint it, like just an aluminum color or black, gray idk. But Im afraid of that chipping off and what not. I also want to make it different from what anyone has, so if its stolen its gonna be a bitch selling a hand polished motor. So I was thinking of hand polishing the block, would this be possible considering it is a cast block?
#2, I dont want to sand blast the motor, for concern of metal pieces getting everywhere. Is it true I can use baking soda, it will blast the block on contact then be disintegrated? And if some backing soda gets in the motor it should not hurt correct?
