Sorry about the lack of replies, I've been out of town.
I can see in the pics that the blasting sand is everywhere still. That stuff is impossible to get out of everything.
Make sure to clean it all again before running it and then change the oil and coolant right away to get it all out.
You don't want that stuff in your motor, it'll grind everything to death!

What clearances are you coming up with? The squish is very important to making good power!
