You must be nuts angle grinder?? Honing tool! about £20 from good tool shop.
A three legged adjustable device with grinding stones on each of the legs. some are fixed and must be used in a pillar drill they do make a flexible one though which you can use in an electric hand drill.

That might be a but too deep for honing, they are only used really for de glazing the bores
What shape are the pistons in?
You may be looking at a rebore, and new piston(s), also need to check the big ends and shells see how bad they are
Depending on your resources and how deep your pockets are, fix and rebuild or replace with another engine
Shame they dont use wet liners, make life a lot easier on these sort of jobs

Don't know what the pistons are like as I haven't removed them yet, however I'm assuming that the damage is a little too deep for it to have a shall we say, positive effect on compression and hence am probably going to go down the replace the engine and then rebuild this one at leisure route...
