[QUOTE="oexing, post: 125358, member: 1493"] You believe anybody in new engine production companies used torque plates for honing operations ? Not really, wastes too much time and no worthwhile benefits. In case of Vincent muffs the liners lose most of the grip when muffs get operating temps so hard to see any changes in sizes not counting heat growth. But definitely there is a critical matter with out of round case bores due to split joints of case halves and splits off-centers as well. Another chance to fu** up bores is a blunt hone or Sunnen type hones with just two abrasive shoes plus two "guiding" shoes from copper or bronce or felt wipers. No way to get geometrically correct bores from that design. Real and decent hones got more than four, six and more abrasive shoes and you´d want to have soft bound stones that will wear before they get blunt and then just follow any shape the liner would have. I will not now elaborate on this unless asked for . . . . Vic [ATTACH type="full"]36575[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
