Coffee filters are lint free. Used them to wipe down bores a few times.

Pick the file up when you go backwards it’s made to cut going forward making contact pulling back just dulls it

And use a thread chaser not a tap, your not cutting new threads, your cleaning them.

use thread chasers as taps are for cutting threads and can cause excess tolerance.....your out there actually getting it done so I hope the best of luck with it😁

I prefer a 3 stome hone preferbly 220-300 grit and atf then i tun a 50-550 grit ball hone backwards to take the peaks off itll help plataue it but a stone hone helps tons smoothing taper and minimal ridge over

Just a trick for cleaning those bores, use gojo creamy hand cleaner to remove all the swarf from the honing process. It will also make those walls silky smooth and manageable. Joking.... It will clean them beautifully and then you can use oil to keep them from rusting

SteinmetzMD :
All good steps, but usually done before painting as I prefer to run it through the wash cabinet one more time after all those steps.

For The Insane :
Never use a standard tap to clean out threads and why not use a good flat stone to deburr the main cap registers?

Need to measure those cylinders for tapering unless you had it machined. But since you ran a home thru them, I’d say you didn’t have machine work done

I like using ATF and white lint free shop towels on the cylinders. Really shows greyness until they’re perfect.

I always figure 2 full cases of brake clean per engine rebuild. And that’s including having the engine block and heads put in our giant parts washer.

Wash with lemon joy. If you smell lemons after that first quarter mile, well. Shit went bad 😂

10/10 clean is the name of the game. If you want to step it up a little get you a bore brush with dawn and clean the cylinders then wipe clean with ATF. Dawn,ATF and brake cleaner is your best friend

Its called lapping i think and you should use a small or fine stone, not the file

Dad should have used a scrub brush on the cylinders to get the fine metal filings out of the tiny grooves, dirt is not your friend. Looks great otherwise
