Dave,
Another option is to have your master resleeved by a company like 
Apple Hydraulics.
They basically bore out the cylinder and press in a "brass tube" that 
is the same size but smoother/longer lived compared to the original.
 From what I have seen, they are about half the cost of new on late 
Spitfire masters. Don't know about early Spit prices.
