how much metal does the average honing shave off?
Nothing noticeable with a gauge. It's just for creating a cross-hatch pattern for the rings to seat with. You'd need to have a machine shop bore your block if you want to go .020 over. As long as you don't have any cylinder wall scratches you can catch a fingernail on, you can just hone it with a bottle brush.
