Ed, Assuming that your engine is still raw brass, there is a dye
product used by machinists that is put on metal to indicate where work
needs to be done as it wears off with metal to metal contact. That will
determine where to file away.
I always feel sorry for guys who pay the big bucks for custom paint jobs
and then have to deal with shorts when that paint wears off and shorts
appear sometimes after a fair amount of running time. This is also a
good excuse for not painting engines--say you're just doing a long term
test! I think I've had to do some surgery on most of my brass engines.
