Vacuum testing of valve sealing, etc...
That's pretty cool, Mike. Wish I had thought of it.
I admire his quest for perfection. Regarding Honing Just ordered a 320 grit Flex Hone of 3.25" size. That is, it can hone up to 3.3" bore, while still having sufficient compression of the hone surfaces to do the job. What really sold me on these is that they indicate their hones are suitable for finishing of a bore where you do not want to go oversize as a consequence of the honing. That, plus the self centering ability of the hone. Also discovered you can use a range of oils with the grit I have chosen, including standard engine oils. Yay! Although grits of 600 (and over if special order) are available, 320 grit is recommended for my application. Bob, i'm downloading and reading several PDFs relating to use of Flex Hone, right now :-)
