A friend has got cast tubular aluminium inlet manifold and wants to know about having it extrusion honed. He's not on the internet and I said I'd ask here as we've got such a wealth of knowledge amongst our contributors. Has anyone had it done themselves, who does it in the UK and what does it cost? Any pointers gratefully received! This sort of thing: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abrasive_flow_machining

I used to work with extude honing when I worked for Delphi but I cant say I've ever seen anyone offering it as a 'one off' service that would be accessible to hobbyists.

Interesting technique I’ve never heard of before. I presume he wants this due to being unable to get internal access to port it?

Thanks for that, I guess there's not much call for it on a home/hobby level. Interesting technique I’ve never heard of before. I presume he wants this due to being unable to get internal access to port it? I think that's the idea! I'd never heard of it before either!
