Honing cylinder

[drvred]

When refreshing a motor what is the max hone to measurement?
What finish should you ask for at the machine shop?

.004 to .004 bigger then piston skirt
Nice cross hatch. About like a older style 350 motor.
I use a fine stone usually

Is there a max bore size?
My bore is scuffed pretty good, wondering if I need a block to put this thing back together.

 

[Coty Morrow]

2.685 is max bore size
Stock piston is 2.676 usually

block could be cheaper than a hone job, if sending it out.

Still have to hone a new
Block most
