Having worked in a machine shop I can tell you reamers are a prick of a tool to work with. I'd go to an auto engine rebuilder and use a pin hone for them. Nice smooth exact finish and it will be cheap too. While the bore may look ok with the reamer, it will have highs and lows in it. This translates to short bushing life.

And they can get the size right. Little steel shaft with bronze bushing.
Book will have it if all else fails.
