ok, the replacement sleeve is for sleeves that have already been sleeved... a repair sleeve is a replacement stock sleeve..


DO NOT SLEEVE THE BLOCK YOURSELF
you obvioulsy have no clue what to do, how the procedure works or anything... take the time and extra money to send it out to someone who knows what they are doing

 

get a big c-clamp and press it in

 

Do NOT do this yourself. I guarantee you will mess the first block up. If you have a spare block, do it, but I would not try this unless you are able to learn from mistake, i.e. have a spare block.

great info!
I would do it myself if I have all the right equipment, since machine shops overcharged and most of them dont know **** about imports/4 cylinders, but since I dont I will take it to the machine shops.

 

DONT do this yourself, you will mess up your block right away as someone else was stating. Overtime your sleeves will ddrop if it is not done right.

Earl can send your block to Bensons to get it sleeved, they do a really good job.

http://www.laskeyracing.com for more of his info if you want to get your engine sleeved.

instead of press i will hot tank the block and freeze the sleeves.

Please post pix of your installation process so we can all benefit.

 

Is what he's talking about even a possible way to install sleves? I know nothing of the process, but obviously if it costs as much as it does, it must be pretty extensive.

 

can i borrow a C-clap and some airplane glue the sleeves keep droping???

 

yeah i'm going to take pics the block was ship out to wichita for aline honing i'm just trying to get all the right parts first so I can do it right.


instead of boring earl you think i can just wet sand the old sleeves out?

Good write up of the process though. thats a open block f22 right?
