Question for the experienced: what is a good plan for home honing of cylinders, this one has .0005" ovality and taper and is on-size for .020" over, upper cylinder ridge is barely detectable and doesn't show on a bore gauge, plan to source new pistons and rings, leaning toward JCC and Hastings package offered by two net vendors. Old pistons had scratches, old rings worn flat. Probably had thousands of miles by previous owner. Should I buy a Flex-hone for ~$25, or mail out to a shop for much more? I think Hastings rings are cast iron- would they seal without hone?
Thanks
Doug
