Hi got a slight chip on the ceramic at the exhaust port about a 1mm by 1mm top of the port would you still run it ?

its certainly not good.........but would be very costly to rectify.........replating etc plus time off the road ........just when you dont need that..........
so ,perhaps this may be worth a try.........
could you maybe just extend the port chamfer and so polish it out..........
or also raise ex port by 1mm and re chamfer............

Do what Sean says. I've got chips out of a couple of muggys like that and one has since done another 30K miles since the repair.
