Hey Guys,
I was wondering if you know of any tips or techniques to prevent the cylinder cooling fins from wearing through the baffles, particularly the curved parts that wrap around the bottom half of the cylinders. I have 350 hours on mine and I removed some of the baffles for some minor repairs and noticed the combing. I was thinking about gluing or pop riveting some baffle seal material on the inside of the curved pieces to prevent further wear. You guys got any other ideas?
