Here's a picture of the diamond hone stones.These last much longer than the old vitrified stones-they also make a cleaner cut and less tearout.The other benefit is less honing pressure which keeps rounder bores for much better ring seal



Here we are honing.I try to keep the bores within .0001'' of roundness and taper



Here's a screenshot of the readout on the hone.The image to the right is an exaggerated image of the bore,top to bottom



After cleaning the block,here we are in the build room,ready to start measuring and assembly
