Need 2nd opinion on part

Here's a picture of a housing and rotor. I am curious and need 2nd opinion if there ok. The rotor I am iffy about and the housing doesn't have a gouge... Just a scuff, but it's near the spark plug hole.

Here's a picture of what happened to my apex seals :P I need to find someone to tune my high ignition on haltech. Anyone know of any good tuners around Chicago land area? (Besides Steve Kan) (sp?) Aspec said they won't touch the e6k. But I'll look some more.

If you want the new engine to last any length of time or have good compression, then you need to replace the housing and rotor.

I would replace that housing.

Ok, sounds good on both. Lucky I have a pair of 9.4 rotors that just cracked a seal. Or I have another set of s5 n/a rotrs BUAHAHhahAhahHAhHAh. Thanks.

The funny thing is, those seals and rotor and housing are from each other. That's the only damage that happened when my ignition broke up. But I guess another display... :P
