Diamonds Are a Block's Best Friend for Honing

Two shops with different needs illustrate how new machine technologies and diamond abrasives simplify the process, cut cycle times as much as half, and improve dyno results. The sophistication and precision of OEM automotive engines today often exceed that of race engines from a few years ago, leaving no margin for error in honing. Bore geometry, clearance and surface finish specs have tightened...
