Can these be fixed?

I think they can be the valves took out the piston before it could really get the head. Only thing I'm not sure of is the swirl thing around the spark plug.

The only part that is actually gouged is the spark plug spot. Everything else is just kinda marked up even the seats look good

I called Wcch. They said just polish it up. I'm kinda excited now. Polish these guys up, fix a guys car tomorrow so he can order my new cam. I'll be all set

. These made good power on my 5.3 even though the dropped compression a lot. They flow very well and will actually raise my compression this time. This 6l is gonna be a runner!
