I`m about to put new rings and bearings in a 302 block.
I bought a 3 stone hone to do this with, but I must admit that every engine I`ve built up until now was freshly bored and went together with all new parts. So I`ve never honed a block before. What type of lubricant ,if any should I use?

MAV,

Use engine oil, 10-40 is fine. Otherwise the stones will fill up with iron.
