  • Cylinder sleeve installation

    Any tips for installing a cylinder sleeve? Like how does one rotationally align the sleeve?

    If I have this cylinder sleeved, the only shop around here does V8 engine work mostly.

    Also, if I have one cylinder 0.5mm over then should I bore the new sleeve to match the other cylinder?

    Thanks!

    Heat clyinder in oven and get it hot enough so the old sleeve almost falls out with a little help. Put new sleeve in cold storage then with the clyinder still hot slide new cold sleeve into the clyinder and align the ports as best you can. Bore the new sleeve so both are the same size, install new piston and rings.
