Do I risk trying to rotate them in the bores?

Do they have to be removed and repressed in the correct alignment?

Not fun on a Friday afternoon when the head was supposed to be going on...

I'ts called "jumping over a dollar to save a dime". -- Go with certified OEM or pay the price later on. - I would not put ANYTHING I got off fleee-bay inside my engine!.
