If i just hone the cylinders and do everything else besides boring, like polish the crank new bearings machine the deck, ect, and the pistons are fine will it still be a risk of it burning oil through the pistons with new rings if i dont bore it out? Thats what im worried about, the surface of...

Yes barely though. Ok so if i do hone/bore my block will i need new pistons and pistons rings? What about the rods? Because if i take it to the shop for a bore or hone i have to remove the pistons either way. So again, will i need to get new pistons if i bore the walls? What about if i just hone...

I did remove almost all the crap off the valves. I didnt do a compression test but the car ran fine and the idle was fine when i took it down the car transport and into my garage.
