If you buy a set of sleeves for a block - how the heck do you go about removing the old ones, and then replacing them with new ones?

 

You have to take it to a machine shop and get them to use a Multi-ton press to press them out.

Then press in the new ones.

 

I thought the old ones were cut out, then new ones pressed in....

yes, they old ones are machined out (usually on a CNC milling machine) and new ones are then pressed in.

Re-sleeving is not a diy project.

 

Anyone know of any shops in upstate NY I can get it done at?

I was asking how it was done - not where I could get a CNC machine and press

But thanks, always wondered how it was done!

 

Theres a shop in Brewster, NY that removs old sleeves and installs new ones, me an my friends use that place when we need machine work, they charge about 400 bucks to replace stock sleeves that price includes the sleeves as well. I belive the shop is called Extreme Motorworks. Hope that helps. Peace

 

Ill have to check it out - thanks! Still not a short trip but a nice all day trip I guess!

How do you prepare the block for sleeving? which offset do you used when CNC machining the block? by the center of each bore? anyone have any experience with this.
