I am replacing motor and have noticed my rotary valve cover has grooves and scratches in it. Would it be better to buy a new cover or have it machined out. One of the grooves runs to the edge of the 2 openings. I have put more money into this ski than I should have and want this to be the last motor and get good use out of it. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Rotary Valve Cover
My engine has a grove scored all the way around the rotary valve surface from a piece of the piston ring. This damage is on both the rotary vavle cover and on the crankcase surface.
Will this damage affect the performance of the motor after a rebuild?Comment

Yes it can cause issues. The surfaces should be smooth; a few light scratches will not be an issue.SBT Tech Support is here to help with your problems.
