WTB Flex hone(dingleberry) tool for honing LS
 

Looking to do it myself and no shops around me carry them. So if you have one laying around hook me up! I've looked on ebay but they just have the heavier grit flex hones for like rebores and nothing for just a hone. :-\ Need a 400 grit.

I've got one. Pay shipping back and forth and you can use it for your motor. I don't want to sell it though.

Fine. Gimme your paypal steve. How much did you pay for it or do you know what grit yours is? i see acouple on ebay but there all around 250-100 grit and I've read to use a 400 grit.

I'd say the grit is right around 400. It's pretty fine. With the adjustable tension you could do really soft stuff, or you could snap a ring on install and gouge the cylinder and get rougher to smooth it out. (yes, I've done it.) :-X

I used wd40 to "lube" it when I honed it, so the stones get a little gummed up, but I'll send a brush to help you out if that happens.

Stealthmodeperformance@yahoo.com $5.75 will cover it priority style.

Where'd you buy it Steve? I will be needing one of these in the near future.

Man, I looked all over for one, and then found it at some off brand hardware store (like Ace or some ----), but it seemed to be independant, so I can't say a "chain" would definately have one. It was $40.

every pep boys or local auto parts store near me carries hones, usually the 3-stone

ya i dont think these guys want the 3 stone ones

Re: WTB Flex hone(dingleberry) tool for honing LS
 

The dingleberry hones are mad bank. Even on ebay their expensive. 40-70 bucks. The 3 stone ones can be found around 10-30 on ebay new. Every store around me has the 3 stones but none with the dingleberry or it had to be special order and from NAPA it was like 70 bucks! Yowzers!!! :o

Yeah I looked around EVERYWHERE in ottawa and couldn't find one...even at my work (a huge dealership) ....so i ended up just cross hatching with the 3 stone deglazer we had..
