Thanks Mike. I'll take the splash shield off when I have it tumbled next week. Much appreciated.

No way i would of tumbled that intake. I use Navel Aluminum Jelly from Loctite. Great cleaner. Soak intake in real hot boiling water, remove and brush on this Aluminum Jelly let it set for a good 10 minutes, put intake back in boiling hot water and brush off with a good paint brush. This will leave a natural casting finish just like the intake came out of the foundry. Just my two cents.
