Rotor + Rotor Housing Reusable ?
#1
I'm rebuilding my engine and I took pics of a rotor that is damaged a bit and a rotor housing that doesn't seem that good to me.
Here is the rotor housing:
And here the rotor:
I think if I use a lime it could be reusable.
They engine was not blown, the compression was 90 psi on both rotor and everything was stripped off so I decided to rebuilt + port it.
What do you guys think ?
Thanks

That rotor deffinately ate an apex or sucked something in at one point. Make sure the bent parts on the rotor dont stick out beond the sides. that housing doesnt look to good, something was going on with the apex at the exhaust port.

that rotor should be ok if you grind it back down. that rotor housing looks really beat though

the rotor shoudl be ok as mentioned above if the grooves are all fine, sand down the sharp edges and make sure nothign sticks out., as far as rotor housing is conserned from teh pictures it looks beat, slide your finger nail across from one end to the other if u can feel anything its not realyl reusable, unless u want to have realyl crappy compression.

Thanks guys!
Can I use any 13B rotor housing or should I stick with s5 TII ? I know there is a thread about rotor housing comparison but I can't find it. Can I use 2 different rotor housing ?

the s4 housing has spark plug holes that are up advanced slightly u dont want to missmatch that. i am nto sure if there is a diffrence in the NA and turbo ones as far as strength goes and the type of "sleeve" used
