Does this cylinder look glazed?

If your throwing new rings at it, for sure run a dingleberry hone through it. Really doesn’t remove material and resets crosshatching for new rings to seat in with. Wouldn’t hurt to have a shop check it with a dial bore gauge…or yourself o you have one…for clearances, taper, etc.

Is it a stroker? I agree with chevelle. At least digleball hone. At least

1) You'd only be honing less than half the cylinder.
2) Imagine the abrasive residue buildup!
3) Did you think this through???

I figured he was kidding, but I thought I’d play along.

If it is abrasive enough to etch a cross-hatch in a cylinder, you know there will be metal and abrasive particles flying around. But besides that, how are you gonna hone a cylinder with a piston in it?? Only half or less will be done. I have never assembled an engine myself either, but if you know ANYTHING about them, common sense would dictate all I just laid out.

Back away, before you get the hone out..
