Re: block guard

Either way. Its recommended to bore or at least hone after one is installed. Not just pop it in and go cause it could oblong the bore from squeezing it.

Re: block guard

Heard they create hot spots so i was advised not to bother. Save your money and get it sleeved if your that worried imo.
