G'day folks,
Plus 1 to Mod Bonnar_Bloke here; my 1981 edition Briggs Service Manual says just that, on that exact page!

For a small amount of bore wear, up to 0.005", Briggs used to offer a 'chrome ring set', which again was fitted without any honing or deglazing.

Although Briggs dropped these chrome ring sets some time back, they are still available from aftermarket suppliers, such as Stens.

Cheers,
Gadge
