Cylinder Honing

[S3_Mitch]

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a honing tool for honing the block in situ, I am struggling to find a UK seller for the Flexhone type and the 'three prong' stone type range in price greatly..

Advice would be appreciated as always, thanks.

I had to order a flexhone from america, in hindsight it was way more expensive than the generic 3 stone type ones, and im pretty sure thats what Tufty recommends anyway.

Yeah this was my thoughts, any idea on the grit recommendation for the stone type?

 

[S3_Mitch]

Still stuck with this, anyone know which grit?

My mate built my engine but the honing tool he used was one of the 3 prong stone things

Thanks for the replies, I have got them videos.. very helpful. I know he suggests the grit for the flexhone tool but not the other type, I think he hints at around 220-250 grit for a stone one so i'll try find one around that.

I got mine from eBay for £20, it's a silverline, worked well on my daughters zetec s.
