reuse corner seal?
I'm rebuilding my engine, and there is no wear limit in my manual for corner seals. I will be replacing the springs, but i'd rather not replace the corner seals if i didn't have to, just the rubber inserts. the new height is 0.276 inches and mine measure at 0.270. To me .006 seems like ver yslight wear especially over the 170,000 kms it has been through. Can I reuse these corners?

The rubber things are optional. I've only seen one engine so far which still had them, and some were missing.
The third gen springs are actually cheaper than the old wire type. Mazdatrix recommends them as a performance alternative to the wire type. I've used them in all my rebuilds.

I have no idea where they go, or I should say how they go. One corner might have a nearly full length hardened seal, the one next to it would be gone without a trace.
