    Uses of a Torque Plate?

    At this point it all depends on what sort of hone is going to be used, something like a Sunnen I'd use a Torque plate but if you're using a hand held flex hone to deglaze the cyliners it'd be a waste of time and effort as it's not going to be round or straight.

    My lucky find: 1989 Toyota Supra Turbo
