Mike,
There are three reasons you must do a complete teardown, cleaning and reassembly. Any one of these, alone, is sufficient to make the task necessary. But you have three reasons to do it.
1. You have a new Indian engine.
2. You found casting sand in #1 above without even looking very hard for it.
3. You plan to use #1 above off-grid (in other words, you need reliable power).
Don't fool yourself. If you run that engine, you'll end up spending much more time and money on it than if you just suck it up, clear some space and get to it.
