Does anyone know if you can ball hone aluminum bores? I'm getting different stories. The bore is in spec. but smooth where the piston runs and original crosshatch at the bottom. Thanks in advance for any help.







Oh yeah RM830 stands for riding mower 8hp 30" cut :rotfl:
Sorry I had to get your attention somehow :uh:

I would think you could but that the hone would packup with aluminum pretty quick.

Are you asking if you can hone your lawn mower engine?

Well yeah... so. It's the only thing I can ride and not fall off of. Well most of the time. I have it apart because of a dropped valve seat.
