Re-faced rockers????

[FP1201]

I bought six jugs from an engine that supposedly had ~30 hours since Govt. rebuild.
While installing them we noticed some of the rockers looked like the face had been welded on then ground on a bench grinder. the valve stems didn't show any sigh of wear, and where the rocker contacts the valve there was a shiney spot so nothing looked like it was wearing abnormally.
Never seen anything like it before....normal? Kosher?
maby I can get some pictures later on.

Its been awhile since I had mine apart but I think they looked the same.

They look the same as mine unless I'm missing something. I hope your 30 hour since military rebuild cylinders are better than mine that only had 30 hours. Mine had so much rust on the cylinder walls I don't even know if they can be re-chromed.

There was some minor pitting in a few of them, but otherwise looked pretty decient.
We honed them all, ran 'em thru the washer-vat, them re-installed the ringed pistons back in their respective holes.

I found a broken oil ring in one of the original jugs and the one beside it was weak....I really would have liked to buy chrome lined, re0builds from SpeedWheelie, but I just couldn't see putting that much more money into this boat.

For now or at least until it's been run an hour or two, I'm going to use rockers that are un-molested then we'll see. The thing that gets me is how rough the grinding is, that said the area that contacts the valve is minimal so the overall roughness is a cosmetic issue....if two others have seen this in their engines, it must be OK.
thanks!
