        Engine building tools and engine building supplies from Goodson Tools & Supplies. Buy engine building tools from Goodson's engine building supply catalog.


        I've used my Flex-hone for several GS850 rebuilds and never had a problem. Just chuck it in a cordless drill and keep it moving back and forth, and it lays down a very pretty crosshatch pattern in about ten seconds per cylinder.

            We sell them for valve guides, but don't use them on cylinders.
