Science is true whether you believe in it or not.
You pretty much have to go nuts with cleaning after blasting engine parts. I use Simple Green and hot water, followed by dishwashing detergent and hot water. I blow out all passages multiple times with compressed air, between each washing. I have a narrow tube on the end of one blow gun that I can insert into bolt holes to blow out debris from the bottom of the hole out. I shoot carburetor cleaner into all of the nooks and crannies and oil passages, and blow out with compressed air again.
It's a royal pain in the ass, but if you want to powdercoat an engine, sandblasting is what you have to do. The cleaning afterward is burdensome, and you have to be extra anal about it.
