Re-honing bores

[Brabham]

Hi all,

 

I have an engine where one of the pistons has failed due to overheating (not a Datsun ). The cylinder itself looks like it should be salvageable with a re-hone. The question is, do I need to re-hone the other bores before putting new rings on? All the bores still have hone marks from when the engine was last built so my thinking was that the other three may not re-honing. Is this correct or am I inviting disaster?

 

Cheers

re hone the lot, it helps the rings bed it, what you do to one you should do to all to keep it balanced
