This is my bore hone of choice. My buddy Don lent me a ball hone, but I’m comfortable with this unit.
After running the hone up and down quickly to get a cross hatch pattern I noticed these dark marks on every cylinder. A careful check to detect any ridges with a dental pick and I found I needed to do a better job of ridge removal. A ball hone wouldn’t have brought this to light.
A little extra with the ridge reamer and all the ridge is gone.
A final hone and the cylinders are all done.
Heads resting on the block and all ready to be tucked away until I get the crank back from the machine shop.
