    From what i understand, you should never use a sand blaster to polish a valve cover. The sand or glass bead ends up getting in places that cannot be blown or cleaned out (such as the baffles where oil can cake), then when oil circulates through the VC the particles get in the oil and lead to premature engine failure. Just my 2 cents. Your other parts look great though.
