I have 3 tappets in my 4 cylinder MGA with a few pit marks.  Can these be
gently polished back to a smooth service (machine shop) and reused  till I
want to get a full set, or do I need to purchase three new tappets now.  The
cam lobes do not show any noticeable wear in these areas and the other tappets
are smooth.

What say you class?

Mark
