Default Glass Beading

Well, project "stocker" will be going into full swing soon with the motor arriving next week, and the next step is polishing the intake, and other parts. My question is:

I know that most recommend sanding the casting to get to the bare aluminum, but I've got access to a glass bead blaster at work, and I'm wondering if this is safe for the intake. Don't want to compromise the integrity of the piece. I know it works great on golf putters!

Thanks,

JD
