The King of All Honing Machines?
During the 2022 PRI show, Steve Morris took the opportunity to get a run down of a Rottler H80 honing machine very similar to the one he just purchased. Check out what this Rottler can do!
Honing the LS
Modern honing techniques are as much a performance concern as they are part of engine design, and that’s thanks to the much tighter tolerances and specifications engines need these days.
Installing Flanged Sleeves in a Cummins Block
Jeff McCord at LinCo Diesel Performance walks you through the necessary steps for properly sleeving a block. It might sound like a simple process, but any errors can mean catastrophic head failure down the road.
Goodson Water-Based Honing Coolant
Goodson Tools and Supplies has been working on this coolant in the product line for a couple of years now and is finally seeing it start to catch on.
