Alan---It's better to keep going with the honing till the pits are
removed, then polish the bore. Once you have a smooth bore, new seals
should then do the job.

Many have chosen to re-sleeve their original units by going to Apple
Hydraulics, if you can afford to give up your car for a while.

New, or rebuilt cylinders may be the most costly way of getting things
right again. Since you seem to have the tools and skills to clean up
your old units, give this a shot first. Most satisfying, and should last
many years when done properly.
