Looking for someone the sandblast/bead blast my stock manifold. I want to repaint it without having all of the old paint still on it. Is there anyone in the southbay (torrance) area that direct me or can handle this for me. Tanks Dave

yup. should take them about 5-10 minutes...cost you maybe $15-20? I've never paid for sandblasting before, so I dunno what the going rate is.
probably depends on your relationship with them, how much business you do with them, etc. if you just spent $5K on a performance engine build, they might do it for free, but if you walk in off the street, spend no other money, then they might ding you a bit more for it.

Thanks for the offer, but I got a bit impatient and just removed the majority of paint with stripper and then baked at 500 degrees in a kiln. Now I hit it with a wire brush and then be ready to get it coated with one of those thermo barriers.
