Hey Guy's, this is my first post,hope you can help. I am rebuilding a 73 TR6 engine,I took it to be boiled out, but they said thats old technology and it cost to much to get rid of old chemicals. So they put it through what is called a "steelabrator", small metal balls bombard the block in a cabinet, its clean as a whistle, however the cam riding areas ("journals"?)are no longer polished looking. Should I hone these areas like the cylinder bores,or just use lots of cam lube and let her fly? Everything is within spec so I could hone a little to clean up. How's that for starters?
