Ah, just realized "dingle berry" refers to a ball type flex hone.
I don't expect that type cylinder finish will allow the engine to survive for long. Alusil is a rather abrasive material and the scratch pattern that would typically be left from a ball hone will quickly remove the iron plating from the piston skirts. Once the iron plating is gone, the aluminum alloys of the pistons and cylinder will likely gall together.
