No you can't do it and I know because I have done it. It is a pain and a lot of honing . You are ahead to send it out for boring. You will take all day to hone plus 10. When you put your dial bore gauge into the cylinder you will find it is not round { round but not evenly honed to size- the spinning stones make it round but tapered as well]. Yes stones spinning in a hole do not always make an even hole. After all the honing both ends will tend to be flared out larger due to the nature of the hone. The guys that did it below are talking about a Sunnen hone ,I'm talking about a Lisle or Snap-on type drill motor driven hone. Not accurate - the boring bar is what makes the hole perfect again. The hone is to finish cylinders for the rings. I'm measuring with a Sunnen dial bore gauge to the ten thousands . You won't like what you see.
