Go inside KB Racing and watch as NHRA Pro Stock's winningest driver shows you how to hone an engine block. Greg Anderson and Lake Speed Jr provide detailed, step by step instructions for honing an engine block for modern piston rings.
The process today is different than 10 years ago because piston rings today are made of different materials and coatings than they were 10 years ago.
This method of honing to size and plateau finishing for texture recently delivered Greg's NHRA record 100th Pro Stock win, so make sure to check out this one of a kind, inside look into how a championship winning Pro Stock team builds engines.
For more on the backstory of this engine project, check out this video: • Lake Speed's Ford C3 N...

Love all the vids, but maybe just one person speak at a time.

I hope all the arm chair machinist noticed that they didn't have to get the block warm to accurately hone to within a couple tenths of a thousanth. I get tired of hearing how just torque plating with gaskets isn't enough. Sorry had to vent it was a long hot days at the shop

Let Greg talk

I assume similar would be recommended for chrome rings now since they are hard or is it still preferred to run them on a coarse finish to make them lap themselves in.

What they didn’t mentioned is how special this machine is. It can actually dynamically sense the bore and pause in certain sections for extra time if it detects a high spot. It’s an amazing machine.

Getting Greg Anderson to hone your cylinders. Good thing you got that on video. Otherwise it’s another Bigfoot sighting story.

Yup with a torque plate and block at normal operating temp. So everything twists and distorts during regular operation.. so the hone job will be true at operating torque and Temps.

Awesome video, I love this stuff

Greg is doing the plateau hone correctly(glad to see it) but there are still a few refinements that could be done to make it even better. Cross hatch angle is one parameter and microscopically altering the plateaus is another that no one has figured out yet.
