    Bought this to rebuild a LS 5.3L. 5 seconds in each hole on low speed. Perfection!

    USED THIS FOR AN LS2 AND AN LS3. WORKED GREAT FOR BOTH. Some learning curve, but definitely adjust the crank as you go or you could slightly scuff it like I did. Not enough to cause a major issue, but did need to use 2000 grit sandpaper and wd40 to wet sand. thats user error. not the product.

    Used the 89mm size hone for my 84mm cylinders in my 52 motor and seemed to work good. Just lubed it up with some motor oil and followed instruction and the cross hatching seemed to come out really good, gotta speed it up on the last few strokes or else your cross hatches will not be close to 45 degrees which I found out quick enough.

    pretty much a good quality hone. just the right size to use on a Mopar 318 and 360. done both engines with this honing tool. good results and obviously the tool still looks new.

    Awesome bead hone

The Flex-Hone® tool was originally created by Brush Research Manufacturing to deglaze cylinder walls in automotive applications. Brush Research embraced the benefits of a plateau finish and pioneered the concept of plateau honing culminating in the introduction of the Flex-Hone tool in 1972. The Flex-Hone has gained many nicknames over the years and including ball hone, ball style hone, flexihone, dingleberry hone, bead brush, glaze breaker and glaze buster. Flexible honing with the Flex-Hone tool produces an oil holding cross hatch pattern and a true plateau finish free of cut, torn and folded metal. Any type or size of cylinder can benefit from the Flex-Hone®. These abrasive bead style brushes are produced in standard diameters from 4mm to 36 inches. Nine abrasive types are offered including silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, boron carbide and diamond allowing the tool to be tailored to finish any base material. A choice of 11 different grit selections are available for precise control of finish parameters. The elimination of peaks results in rapid ring seating, better oil control, reduced seepage in hydraulic and pneumatic applications and provides better seal performance and longer seal life. Successful applications include firearm chambers, shotgun barrels, musical instruments, combustion chambers, air compressors, pumps, valve bodies, valve guides, brake cylinders, wheel cylinders and the list goes on and on. Flex-Hone® tools are also very effective for deburring cross drilled holes, port radiusing and edge blending. Because of its unique construction, the Flex-Hone is self-centering, self-aligning, and self-compensating for wear so it does not require an elaborate set-up or special training. Deburring can be effectively automated and combined in the machining process to allow a complete cylinder finish in one operation or it can be employed as a secondary operation with equal results.
