Pros & Cons
Pros
Rigid stones and felt wipers, with a micro-adjustment that will allow precisely honing a cylinder bore to exact specification. The included 80 grit stone eats through material fast and the micrometer adjustment (with included 120 grit stone) allows yo... Read More
Takes man * of a drill (120 volt break your rist drill) to run it if your going to bore oversize. The ultimate tool for serious engine builders to provide the correct fit for new piston in a fresh bore.
Dragster engines. The micro adjustment available on this tool gives the user total control during the process. Excellent tool for any size shop. That pretty much sums up the words needed to describe this tool.

It is not a sunnen but it doesn't cost $1,600.
Shipping
But upon opening the case i noticed the stones had banged around from shipping and due to a lack of packing material inside the tools case.

Packaging/appearance
Opened it up and one set of stones was destroyed and the other chipped.
Lisle needs to step up there packaging.
Talked to their support and they did send me both sets of stones after a discussion on the packaging problem.

Either way you need to install the holders in the holes opposite of what is indicated in the instructions otherwise the stones will be backwards
