So I have the top end of the motor apart and will be splitting the cases this weekend. I plan on soda blasting the outside of the entire motor, head cover, head, and cases. Should I mask off the inside areas? I'm worried about the areas where the bearings rest, will unintentional blasting of those areas be bad? It appears that all of the outer rings of the bearings only "rest" on those areas while the rotation of the shaft causes the balls to rotate (that's what she said) between the inner and outer rings. I'm thinking blasting those areas for a quick cleanup wouldn't be bad but I want other input before I make a big mistake. Thank you all in advance
