Edelbrock Performer RPM Intake

So i picked up a used intake which was previously painted satin black. So i decided to have it media blasted with glass at a local shop. I got it back today and the fu**ers didn't mask anything off and blasted away some threads on most of the bolt holes, and they blasted the smooth surfaces on the carb mounting portion and where the intake gasket go. Am I screwed or can this intake be saved.

what about the threads being blasted off on the bolt holes can those be re-threaded some how.

You can get a pretty good tap and die set at most hardware stores, i got mine from canadian tire for 60 bucks about 5 years ago and i've tapped many holes since, heh.
