Is there any way to clean an aluminum intake up to get oil stains and years of dirt of.Can I sand blast it and not do anything to it and not have to worry about it tarnishing?

You can bead blast it and clear it or you can have it powder coated a dull aluminum. The powder coating looks real good and any dirt just washes off. Dave

If you dont want to blast it and the intake is in good shape other than just being dirty, you can use a wheel cleaner meant for bare aluminum wheels---eagle one makes such a cleaner.

some old dude once told me that soaking it in antifreeze kicks butt, but i never tried it...... i glassbead mine, then put it in the bathtub and thoroughly wash it out with saop and water.

Get it as clean as you can wiping it down with engine cleaner then stick it in the dishwasher. (Try to do this when your wife is away) lol
I did my aluminum intake that way and it came out spotless.
