Those look deep. And they are to far down to say porting will remove them.
But im no expert. So don’t listen to me.

I started with sanding but got nervous about the platting so I switched to acid. But then got a little impatient and did more sanding. I still have just a little more transfer to remove about the port otherwise it’s good to go.
Also I will be porting and machining this cylinder. Does that change anyone’s mind?
Silk purse out of a sow's ear?
Might be good for practice or trying different mods.
Would you want to spend a lot of time on it for a saw you wanted to last?
Let us know how it lasts. It might surprise us.
Since this is going to be a customer's saw, I'd find another jug. That small chip out of the plating below and to the right side
of the exhaust port will likely be problematic. If your guy was ever to push the saw hard with a dull chain or put it into a hard
service scenario like milling or stumping, that area could lose more plating. If it didn't have that one chip in it, then I would
have said you're good to go.
Yes I’m worried about spending time on a less than perfect cylinder. But everything is good and smooth. I’m leaning towards finding another cylinder
066What does that cylinder belong on, make of saw?
