Thanks for the info, been a big help. Looked at the hone i did and it looks approx 45 degrees. so i should be good. main reason i did the hone was to get out a small nick on the bottom of the cylinder so it didnt scratch up the piston skirts.
Should i hone the rest of the cylinders while i have all pistons out or just return them to their old locations and call it good?
