Are these rotors and housings salvageable?

Here's a Google Photo album because there were a lot of pictures I took, I'm not sure if that's allowed.
Anyway, the only things I noticed were burnt spots on the rotary housings and a lot of carbon build up.
I can't feel any bumps or ridges when I drag my finger across.
Thanks.

Dan,
Could you take photos with motion capture off? It's hard to study the parts with that function enabled. Your finger may not be able to feel all the ridges but a ball point pen may give you better results. From what I've seen, it looks like the housings have lots of chatter marks. The front and rear irons have heavy scoring from the side seals, etc... One of the rotors has a rough spot in its center. Perhaps cleaning them and measuring the surfaces would give a better answer. As I recall my motor rebuild, the housing needed replacement because of chatter and other scoring marks. However, more experienced builders may offer much more sound advice.
Cheers,
George

also, sorry my phone does this motion thing automatically, you can disable it with a button on the top when viewing the photos.

Insightful is correct about resurfacing the chrome lining. Once scored, the housings cannot be repaired. It looks like new housings are required. Again, I am not an expert on motor rebuilds so I shall leave comments for those who are more qualified.
I wish you the best of luck on your repair and please keep us posted on your progress!
