Kwik-Way / Delapena Speed Hone

The Kwik-Way / Delapena Speed Hone is a robust, general-purpose cylinder-honing tool designed to handle engine cylinders, sleeves, and a variety of cylindrical bores. As a used unit, it presents an economical option for machine shops and engine-rebuild facilities that require flexible honing capability without buying a brand-new hone.

 

Whether you’re rebuilding automotive, light-duty diesel, small industrial, or general-purpose cylinders, the Speed Hone gives you the ability to restore bore finish, correct minor distortions, and prepare surfaces for re-assembly or further machining. Its relatively compact size and straightforward operation make it well-suited for small- to medium-volume shops looking for dependable honing capacity.

Key Features

  • Versatile Cylinder Honing Capability — Capable of honing a wide range of bore diameters (from small-bore automotive to medium-duty engine cylinders) depending on tooling installed.

  • Compact and Shop-Friendly Design — Smaller footprint compared with large CNC honing machines — useful for shops with limited space or for light to mid-volume workloads.

  • Cost-Effective Entry/Upgrade for Honing Work — As a used unit, the Speed Hone allows shops to add honing capacity without the expense of a full-scale machine, making it ideal for budget-conscious rebuilders or shops expanding their service offerings.

  • Flexible Use — Engine Blocks, Sleeves, Industrial Bores — Whether you’re refurbishing engine cylinders, honing sleeves, or prepping industrial cylinders, the Speed Hone adapts to various tasks.

  • Wear-Opening Preparation & Re-finishing — Useful for deglazing cylinders, final honing after boring, or light resurfacing before reassembly — helpful in rebuild/re-machining workflows.

  • Simple Setup & Operation — Good for shops where ease-of-use, low maintenance, and versatility matter more than high-volume automation.

Built on Real Engine-Rebuilding Experience

Decades before today’s engine shops trusted our equipment, Tony was already deep in the craft — rebuilding motors, machining blocks, and pushing for better precision.

A local newspaper once featured him as a standout young machinist, noting his drive, attention to detail, and obsession with doing things the right way. That same passion would eventually shape our company’s values.

Today, that commitment lives on in every machine we sell, every customer we support, and every shop we help succeed.
