Soda Blasting

After numerous false-starts, I was finally able to remove and soda blast the engine. Below are some before and after photos:
I used the 15lb 'Central Pneumatic' soda blaster. A few things about this product: first, it needs a lot of air - don't bother trying to use this unless your air compressor can put out at least 9 CFM. Second, you will need a separate, high-quality water remover in-line with your air supply. The smallest amount of moisture will clog the machine and you'll have to take it all apart, de-clog, etc...not worth it. Finally, as with all tools be sure to have proper PPE - in this case that means a proper respirator, goggles and clothing that you either don't care about or can dedicate to dirty work.
