New Rings

[sagalout]

Fitting new rings to existing pistons. Need to remove the glaze from the bores? Best way to do this?
THoughts & comments please.

Take your block to an engineering firm that have a propr honing machine and get them to do it, I don't think it's a very expensive operation.

If you're determined to do it yourself one of those drill-powered abrasive wheels with lots of flaps of emery paper sticking out from a central core seems to be the preferred tool. Be totally meticulous about cleaning up afterwards!

You could always try one of these :

I've no idea how good they are but they are certainly advertised as the tool for the job.
