[QUOTE="NSEric, post: 8166055, member: 157288"] I've chipped the plating on cheap AM cylinders using a burr so I bought some diamond and stone bits and use them now, it's slower but safer. A diamond or stone bit will work for the exhaust port. One of the dremel bits for sharpening a chain is surprisingly good at it. I only use a burr bit on the lower transfers after outlining where I want to grind in the plating with a diamond bit so I dont chip the plating. I use a sanding drum to finish the exhaust port as it makes it nice and smooth, I dont want the intake or transfers smooth so they're left as rough as a burr leaves them. [/QUOTE]
