Not just not just yet. Going to call laskey to find out what they found and with my break down after I get this one up. The head was checked and its good. It's the block that I question from erl after I got it back from them.

Yeah my radiator cap for the pressure tester was faulty. So it was hard for me to determine to see if it leaks from the sleeves. But I feel that it is coming from there.

lol.
Opened many block boxes so i don't know why i watched this vid. I'm happy for you
I've never had a block align honed except once when i actually had to swap the main caps, never had an issue.

The video is meant to more funny than informative but informative at the same time lol. If you go on to YouTube and look up unboxing videos you'll be shocked as to what you'll find. So I said, f it, I'll do the same with this lol!
I'm trying to understand what you mean by main house bore.. Do you mean the main caps for the crankshaft? That's only necessary if using aftermarket main studs.. Not a general sleeving.
