you just hope there no grit in that area, it will be in your motor after you start it. Also hopefully your sandblaster sealed off your exhaust pipe too when he blast it.

Yep seen lots of guys ruin 2 stroke motors from blasting the pipes..

I will look over it again inside the barrels and ports and make sure to get any grit I see OUT! As far as the oem pipe, I need to fix the crack in it. And then I will send it to a REAL coater to do a ceramicoat on it inside and out if possible. If he can't get it inside then I will ask him to flush out the inside somehow. If you flush it thouroghly will it be o.k.?

I use 1/2" sharp edged landscaping rock and strong detergent. Put your favorite movie on and start shaking! Make sure you get all the rocks out when your done!
