I honestly don't know how they could be rebuilt, as pencil injectors were always know to not be rebuildable because they are crimped on assembly.
Depends on what “rebuilt” means. Hopefully at least cleaned, tested, and new seals.
So I talked to the seller about the refurbished injectors . They were cleaned tested, and new seals installed, so I ordered a set. I also pulled my injectors and ordered new seals from an injection shop. I may still get them tested/cleaned if I can find a shop nearby. Just for backups. I pulled all the valves, and all exhaust seats were pitted from carbon, but nowhere near as bad as #1. So 3 more exhaust valves on order plus 8mm mandrels for my seat grinder. Glued some 320 wet-or-dry to my granite surface plate and ran the head over it. Cleaned up nice. Seems like the further I go, the deeper down the rabbit hole I get!

lol , there are a lot of “race spec” features in these engines:
Forged crank
Forged rods
Radiused fillets
Cross drilled journals
Skirted block
they are definitely built tough!
