Engine parts okay? Need advice

Hi,

today i disassembled my engine. (S5 N/A)

Now i want to know, if the housings and the irons are okay for a rebuild. In reality the surfaces are looking very nice, on the photos i have taken, they aren't. ;-)









It would be very nice if someone could tell me if i could reuse those parts.

Thanks alot!

Regards,
Daniel

Pick up a book and mic (measure) the step wear on the side housings. The rotor housings have quite a bit of chatter and a bit of flaking. And its hard to judge on the scars/scratches in them. Measure everything up and see how it comes out. If its ok then decide if you want a motor that will last a long time, or spend bookoos of money and do it right.

My housing werent quite that bad but I still used them for the hell of it. but I'm not going to tell you exactly what you should do.
