Apexes are way taller than spec (.218 vs. .200)....probably not a bad thing. There is also a pretty serious mark on 1 of the apexes....how and why would a corner seal do this?.....possibly rotor....finishing cleaning them today to find out

When you put the apex up against my precision scale (that’s a ruler for the rest of you
) you can see there is about .001.....it’s nearly impossible to measure accurately with the tools I have but you can visually see it.....the photo exaggerates it

E-shaft is good in all aspects but there is slight wearing on the rotor journals...I think for $180 might as well get a new one.

is that a true flat edge? If it is then damn--you need to tall with the person that sold them to you.
when did you start wearing fingernail polish?![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Where the hell did that mark come from?
easy to see the contact mark midway on the apex--you can see how a taller seal may help some people.
09 housings can be used in earlier models? I thought they are slightly different?
