Only one tip of the rotor is like that, have'nt measured it yet because my tools and half of the engine is in another garage..
But the apeax seal slot should be straight anyway, am i right?

insert a 2 mm apex seal and measure the clearance along the length of the groove.

Goopy makes a .004 over 2 mm seal that may be the fix for you.

use the following precision file

4.0 Double Cut Equalling Swiss Precision File Coarse Cut 0 MariTool


about $20.... do get the coarse cut which is a "0"

im in europe so no goopy here.
the apex seal slot is straight, i looked it over the non straight part is about 1,5mm deep down to the slot
if the other part of the apex slot is in tolerance then it would be usable?
i can measure it tomorrow with new atkins apex seal
