You be opening a can of worms to start with.
You need the model, type, and date code of the engine to look-up parts.
You to mic the cylinder at three levels along with two checks at 90 degrees of each other on each level and inspect the cylinder wall condition.
You need a rigid hone for resizing. or a flex if you just want to break the glazing.
If resizing is needed then the rigid hone is a must as it removes taper and oval of cylinder which a flex hone just makes worst.
If resizing you also need oversized piston and ring set that matches your engine specs.
Just note many of the oversize piston and ring sets are NLA now that Briggs is under new managers.
