Cleaned the "easy" stuff off the transmission. I am considering taking it to a blaster for a CLEAN sweep (the shop uses glass or walnut). Could then be painted too, after a rebuild. Is there a reason(s) to not media blast the transmission (EXTERNAL surfaces only)?

I will powerwash a tranny the day before I rebuild it, I wrap rags into the stubs, wrap/tape every opening and I still see water in the case when I tear it down.
How often do you see people crawl under your car and go "Ohhhhh such a pretty transmission!"?`
I guess if you're building a trailer queen it's OK, but I plan to drive my 914.
