I doubt that he's running sleeves out of some "turbo diesel" motor.

Most likely they're the standard iron ductile sleeves that "some" turbo diesel motors may also have. You can get them in various sizes and bore.

I wonder how much that "mechanic" is going to charge for that setup?

ya it sounds a little wierd to me also, but 2 years ago so did things that are common knowledge today, so i always try and do some reasearch before i go and call somone out, we'll see. and the other thing is he wants only $250 to put them in according to this guy.

btw- rcr what part of atl you from? im from gwinnett.

Hmm... well t-hoff is a machine shop here in Raleigh. I drive by there all the time. I don't really know anyone there though. I don't see what difference using sleeves from a turbo diesel would make. I mean, cast iron sleeves are already made for the H22, right? I would just give them a call and chat. They also have a shop in Chapel Hill.
