glaze breaker

[DAC96]

well the other day I put new rings on my pistons and new rod bearings, well I was about to put the head back on today, but i did some searchin' and it got me kinda peronoid. All I did to the cylinder walls was take a glaze breaker to it to make new cross hatchings. so I guess my question is...will that be enough for my new rings to seat? I guess before I go any further I would like to have either the peice of mind...or know that I should take the block out and have it honed
derek


edit: ok did some more research...do I have my termonolgy screwwed up, is honning basically the same as glaze breaking

Yes, honing is the same thing. As far as having the rings seat, that is all you should have to do. Did you check your cylinder walls to see if they were gouged at all?
