Ok so i just got my rotor out of my parts cleaner and i saw this nick in the side of it, is it a problem? O and what about the mark on the face of the rotor? it looks like someone stamped a K on it. How will this effect the performance of my motor? its not sticking out so it wont scratch the housings. Any input is appreciated.

 

my *uneducated guess* is that it is fine; I can't see any way in which it would directly effect performance in any notable way, or degrade engine life.

that is, of course, based on the assumption that this didn't cause your engine problems before

 

That ding is no problem.

Looks good to go.

 

No worries...
If you have damage at the apex seal groove or the side seal groove, then I'd worry.

Your two pics are insignificant marks on the rotor.
Go ahead and use it.
