I have my heads off and I am looking at some easy to remove P&C's. I am thinking of getting new rings ($80) and using a "grape hone" in the cylinders.

Does that sould like a good plan ? or am I just wacko (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)

Depending on the cylinder wear , There wil be a step at the top of the cylinder that a grape hone wont remove.

Well, don't you want to use a ridge-reamer to remove the step before honing regardless of what hone type you use?

Most T4 cylinders are marginial at best...just using a ridge reamer you end up with a cone shaped cylinder.

A Sunnen is the only way to fly...even then at least 80% of the cylinders I do are NFG.
