I am cleaning up the block for my h3. What have you found to work the best for cleaning rust and crud from the liner seal bores? I haven't found a wire brush small enough to fit in the grooves for a drill or digrinder. Any thoughts?

Keep looking there are smaller cup wire brushes out there that can do what you want.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

Electrolysis works great and not much mess to clean up
