what is the downside to resurfacing a housing?

I don't think there is really a downside to getting them resurfaced in my opinion. I was nervous about getting them resurfaced at first but when I got them back I was very pleased. Also the housings are supposed to have really good compression because they are very square once they are resurfaced. Also the other person who had a question on the housing being sand blasted they do not appear or fell like they have been sand blasted.
Thanks

They look great. What are you doing for seals? I'm assuming something softer than the stock apex seals. I know a lot of people have varying opinions on this topic but would a seal like Goopy Performance's apex seals be a good pairing with refinished housings? I know they offer a refinishing option for rotor housings too. J/w

Hi I am not to sure on which seal I am going to go with as of yet. My rotors are 3mm because the rotors had a good size gap from the stock 3 piece seal.
Thanks

Always good stuff from them. Were you the one I messaged to check them out months ago? I have 20b parts sitting over there. I just need to dig a little deeper into my pockets to finish! I have also had a bunch of housings resurfaced cut by them and ran them with no problems in the half bridge port motor I had. Send them some of your engine rotors if you want to really see some cool machining porn!

I had the housings here for porting and I can assure you that they were sand or bead blasted prior to the ultrasonic cleaning. The housing surfaces did look really good, edges were spotless.

Thanks ArmyOfOne for the great job on the porting.
