I did not sand blast it... I can't throw sand fast enough to make a difference ... I just need to wet sand it And do another light coat...

I don't want to thread hijack... But...

Yes...Yes... and Do it!!! Super affordable, makes great power in its "stock" configuration, and it's easily upgradable (HE's, Pullies, etc)
