Honing 3.2 cylinders.

As I progress in my rebuild I will soon have to make a decision regarding my 3.2 cylinders which are Mahle. They have 133,000 miles and are withing specs. The insides look great and still have the factory hone marks. Wayne, in your book you show using a flex hone on the cylinders. I presently have the standard 3 stone hone. Can I use this or should I get a flex hone? If I get the flex hone should I get the 95mm (the size of the cylinder bore) or get one larger (the next size up is 105mm) or should I even hone the cylinders?

320 silicon carbide ball hone. Or, just scrub with a scotch brite pad to break the glaze. You're not honing, just cleaning up.
