I phoned everywhere, nobody has one :banghead:
Thanks

leads me to believe you probably dont really need to use a diamond hone then, ??

i just use a stone hone .

I need to remove some material, which you must use a diamond hone. Regular stone will just crosshatch. I believe Millenium had one, before they closed up. I just now found a place that has one :banana:

Read this:

Good read, thanks Dave :beerchug:

also i have been told on a nik cylinder that you use acid to get the material off which usually is piston and comes off. then just a litle hone to get the cross hatch back.

That would be correct if your prepping the cylinder for a new piston , ring etc

WHAT exactly are you trying to do ?? nic is not thick,

you're not putting in a new piston, rings etc?????? then whats on the cylinder?

They're referring to smeared aluminum from the piston deposited onto the bore. Use hydrochloric (muriatic) acid to eat the aluminum away before deglazing.

Sorry didn't mean to confuse anyone. My jugs came back from Milenium 1 thou thicker than I had wanted. Millenium coats the nic a little thicker than factory so removing the thou is not a problem. Adrian Berard (sp) in Quebec, or Mongoose in BC have the diamond stone. Thought maybe someone new if the stones from Millenium, in Stony Mntn, were still around. Just hoping to do it locally.
Thanks

I'll get back to you on that.

Appreciate it :beerchug:

Go to Rons Marine. They got the stuff to do your jug.

You can use a 320 grit bead hone, works just as good.

No they can't do it but thanks

The diamond hone from Millennium was damaged in the fire and wasn't replaced, so you're SOL. You can try another type of hone but nikasil is very hard so I don't know if you'll get the nice cross hatch afterwards.

Looks like you have some big power mods done, you should come out to the floodway this winter for some snow drags, it's all for fun ! :beerchug:

I HAD A COUPLE OF CLY DONE FROM THEM AND WERE TOO TIGHT WHY NOT JUST TAKE THE BACK AND THEY WELL DO THEM RIGHT AND WILL THEN IF ONE PEELS THEY WILL LOOK AFTER YOU

I may have to send them back, just wanted to avoid the delay of shipping back to the States for 5 minutes work.

Thanks for the input guys, sent them off to Mongoose Machine in BC
Come on snow!! :fluffy:
