2007 Exige S 5000 miles
Definitely doesn't look like the example here http://www.lotustalk.com/forums/1206291-post74.html
Mostly I see the factory coating being polished off. Not evenly, but that seems common based on posts I've read. Not sure if the wear pattern is normal or ideal.
If cylinder 1 is closest to the timing chain (if that is correct) then I am most concerned with what I see on the intake lobes of cyl 1 and 3 (assuming right-to-left is 1-2-3-4).
I feel nothing. Just a smooth surface on all lobes.
But I took a few pics and would like to get some visual second opinions before I button it back up.
Thanks!
