In past videos of removing cylinder sleeves, one of the comments we have always seen is "Why don't you use a sleeve puller?"
Well, the answer is within this video. In this case, a Ford 172 ci engine came into the shop after a customer had issues pulling the sleeves.

[@stykytte]

Raid sponsorships might seem tempting as they'll pay anyone willing to take them, but be warned the company uses deceptive practices and the "game" itself is terrible. That script they get you to rattle off is BS and anyone who has any experience with raid knows it. It's essentially a Ponzi scheme, they bait people into it with promises of fun, but it's just a click sim that demands real money payments to actually "play" at any enjoyable rate. I just found your channel and your content seems good, I generally unsub from any channel that runs more than one raid ad after the inevitable comments telling the creator they won't accept being lied to or being peddled a scam product. I will give you the benefit of the doubt of not knowing this time and give you a sub, but most people will just close the window when met with a Raid ad and they won't come back.

[@Ty81494]

Your video is great but just be honest the customer is a cheap fuck and buys cheap parts quality parts normally have less imperfections not all the time as humans we not perfect but by everything i seen in video yea hes a cheapy

[@piratewraith]

So you don't have do it twice. Counter bore to depth .005 -.007 deeper than the lowest point of the uneven deck height surface. This way you can dut the deck with the new sleeves in and save yourself time and aggravation.

[@alanweaver3017]

I'd love to see a part 2. The struggle between perfection, doing a job to the absolute best of your ability, and doing a good job, knowing it's not perfect but maybe perfect for the scenario is a common struggle! Love watching how you guys tackle these things and take the time to film, edit, and post these videos! Keep up the good work!!

[@Calango741]

Yep, exactly...

[@stephensaines7100]

Reality and pragmatism is to work with what it is now. But damn that! For the amount of work put in so far, to get it as close to perfect as possible isn't that much more. I have to ask, and I'm mechanically minded, but not an advanced mechanic: Would it be possible to hone the walls closer to round and insert the sleeves with a compound to fill the 'voids' or 'valleys' to at least improve the concentricity of the sleeves when machined?

[@LeonardRoberts]

I too would like to see a and part to the video. It's tough for machists, mechanics and others who strive to put out the very best product we can, however need to work within the customer's price range and desires/wishes.

[@OutDoorsMan1342]

​@@stephensaines7100 hey mate, I'm not a mechinest, but I don't believe there is anything for an I.D. to fill voids. there is however a thing called a speedy sleeve fot the O.D. of a shaft like an axel, that has a groove worn into it by a seal to do a sami reliable repair. However in this case 1 could put the sleeves in and rebore and hone the bores, however it is still not a great practice due to the various thicknesses . But a great question none the less

[@realtundratrash]

My favorite part about you and your dad's shop is that you guys have the wisdom to realize not everybody is made of money, and you're not working on Ferraris.

I would like to see a part 2. Not necessarily the whole process, but, at least what decision the owner made and how the job turned out.

Love the vids, very informative, thanks for taking the time to make and share them with us. Hope the Allis is trouble free and productive in the future.

[@billywird]

It is a money decision and in this case as stated the method put forth by Jim will be the most cost effective way to go. Most good shops are in constant communication with their customers. I would just document on the bill what was done and the reason for it. It protects the shop and it protects the customer.

[@stephenphillips9661]

Would luv to see Part 2!!! As a mechanic / machinist I understand the customer’s budget is always a driving factor so it is always good the have options available and with the watching of other fellow machinist sometimes one will come across something that has been missed or discover that what they have been doing could be done better!!

Welding the sleeve will shrink them, weld beeds the length of the sleeve. Allow to cool, then pull it. When they shrink they may just fall out. Use this same technique for bearing races inside a case wall.😊

I retired from machine shop and sold my equipment, worst mistake I ever made.

[@gboots9009]

I've rebuilt many N series Ford engines (8N, 9N, 2N) and the newer generation engines like this one, and can tell you the parent bore is never round. I don't think it's from poor previous machining, but more from these blocks being 70+ years old with countless heat cycles. While not the best way, I can say from experience that installing the sleeves and touching them up with a hone will absolutely work just fine for what that engine is. I understand wanting to do it right, but unfortunately, it doesn't always make sense financially from the customers' perspective when you can achieve satisfactory results using what you have.

[@RobertBeck-pp2ru]

Right on. Customers expectations should be tempered by reality. These work horses ran just fine in not so perfect blueprint condition.

[@rickden8362]

@@RobertBeck-pp2ru It seem like he should have assessed the condition of bores before you proceeded with decking and addition work.

I faced this exact same situation on a 1951 Ford 8n engine. We decided to install 2 repair sleeves and bore them to standard ID for the replacement sleeves. Recut the counterbores and a slight decking to make it flat. Its been about 10 years now and it still runs good. Wish grandpa was around to see his tractor run better than it had in 50 years. Love the videos guys. Joe

[@cobra02411]

I personally would love to see part 2 - no matter what direction you go. Not everyone has oodles and oodles of money for such things so you do the best you can and knowing what acceptable compromises there are and when you would use them vs something else is great information to get out there.

[@bamzager]

Yes would like a part 2 on this. 🙂 For me the amount of perfection you put into the work relates to the amount of satisfaction you get out of it in the end. And it,s also part of keeping you going thru the years even when at times business is bad. That said, it,s also important to do the best job that the customer can afford. (within reason that is. Quality of the work comes first on this) Really like this channel, the content and the way it is presented, so thank you both for putting in the effort. 👍

[@billl7551]

13.22 is the best part of the wisdom of the job. Having done a few hundred rebuilds in the early 70's, I found this kind of shop expertise is the only shop to use. Nothing is ever perfect. It might be possible to hone the sleeves round after installation (w/torque plate), but tricky to keep from being too thin. Maybe there is excess wall thickness, it would be wise for the sleeve vendor to have that available. Your response to this option would be appreciated.

Pro tip to keep your blasting cabinet's windows clearer, for longer: Before installing a new window have automotive paint protection film applied over it on the inside the cabinet surface. Blasting media will bounce off and not scratch it, or very little, plus the stuff is self healing. You should get substantially improved window life this way.

[@jeffnevius]

You can take your mig and weld a bead 90 degrees apart, so 4 beads the length of the sleeve let cool they shrink enough and come right out.

[@ZMAN_420]

Same with bearing races. But I prefer the air hammer.

[@JAMSIONLINE]

Have seen damage and failed attempts from our customers who use their welders too 🤣 But yes it works, if you’re careful. We still prefer boring.

[@JAMSIONLINE]

Running a bead of weld up and down the sleeve wall as you have suggested is a very bad idea. If you are skilled enough to not burn through the thin sleeve and weld the sleeve to the block, the heat will penetrate deep enough into the parent bore and create distortion in the block. Then if the sleeve does not come out as expected, it cannot be bored out because welding cast iron creates extremely hard spots that our cutters will not touch. Next time you do one that way, check the parent bore with a bore gauge when you get done. You will see what I am talking about. The Cleaning Guy.

I am currently restoring and doing an engine rebuild on a mid 50s ford tractor with the same engine, I did pull sleeves with a puller as this is my first full engine rebuild project. All of the measurements that you have gotten are all very similar to what I have gotten, all I had to do was hone out the sleeves once installed because there weren't very accurate and there was just about no cross hatching. Liked the video and would love to see another video of this engine.

[@RobertBeck-pp2ru]

I recently re-sleeved my'52 Case SC. A wet sleeve engine. Made my own puller to pop them out. Case calls for the new sleeve to project .003" above the block when fully seated. After carefully cleaning the cntr bores I installed the new sleeves and was relieved to see two were at about .0025" and the other two were just under .003". For a 70 year old engine I wasn't expecting super power, but the improvement was notable. These old engines will continue to serve the owners for many more years, even if they are not blueprint perfect. I enjoyed this video. Thanks for posting.

As a lifelong amateur mechanic and having rebuilt several Ducati 750 GT roundcase engines I really appreciate your attention to detail. I have seen several different valve seat cutting rigs the single cutter one you guys use surprised me I thought the three cutter staggered radial position setup was better from a chatter point of view. A single cutter with multiple angels as my shop teacher would say is a forming tool and because of the large contact cutting surface needs power and rigidity to mitigate chatter. Having send all that watching you correct a 3 thou valve runout to under .0005 or half a thou for the imperial crowd was awesome . The variable speed drive and air bed valve machine is an amazing bit of kit. Wobbles the mad Aussie.
