94 usdm teardown, next steps?
help!
hey guys just tore apart my motor. for background it had a detonation event 500 ish miles ago and has been running a bit low on power since. compression test showed
front - 100 - 50 - 50
rear - 100 - 100 - 60
rear iron looks great
rear housing edge wear otherwise good
rear rotor looks good
center iron small groves on both sides(catches nail)
front housing has deep grooves near exhaust port otherwise good condition?
front rotor has some small dents
front iron looks great
could this housing be used? maybe just resurfaced and use softer apex seals.
im worries about possible balancing issues here is the bearing wear normal as well etc
is this something I can rebuild myself (sand housing, new apex seals + soft seals and call it a day or find a local builder)
what do you guys think?
appreciate your guys expertise and time!!

Yeah that's what I thought at first, but since the scratches are right after the exhaust port, it doesn't actually affect compression. Which is probably why one face still had 100 psi of compression
