Once you've selected your sleeve, you have to make sure it's properly installed and machined in order to put the engine back together. Steve Morris of Steve Morris Engines explains the sleeving process.

I found this very interesting. I have had a block sleeved before but it was a street engine so it was very informative to learn about the other types of sleeves.

Hi Steve , I appreciate your knowledge passed on to us you tube watching audiences . i have a Pontiac 389 that I am going to have one cylinder sleeved because the engine sat for years and the one cylinder , the piston was at the bottom of the stroke and water or moisture sat and now the lower end has a area that has a pitted texture that won't clean up with honing. I plan on putting a stroker kit in other wise it probably wouldn't be an issue. With all that being said the engine will be in the 425 -450 hp range the block is the original cast iron block from 1960. Do you recommend the other cylinders being honed after the sleeve is put in . Since the hp will be under 500. The stock stroke was 3.75 the new stroke will be 4.25 thanks for any advice you might have .

How long will a engine last after sleeves

The worst were the older LS ERL blocks, They always had issues with sealing sleeves.

I'm looking to possibly wet sleeve an engine for a larger bore. The bore spacing is 4.38" and I want a 4" bore (currently it is 3.75) . I am wondering if it can be done without loosing structure integrity of the block. 258 6 cylinder Jeep engine with 351 Cleveland heads cut and welded together to make some interesting power.

Do you increase your piston clearance slightly on a dry sleeved hole due to changing the heat transfer characteristics???

Hi, great video. Can you sleeve a Mercedes-Benz V12 block?

I have a v8 cid which was sleeved however while boring the block it cut into the water jacket on 2 cylinders, all of which was coated with red locktite before pressing in which had a .003 press press fit. This is my boat engine and I am wondering if it could cause a problem with the water touching the sleeves the sleeve is 3/32 thickness and it is melling CSL136HP sleeve…. Thanks for your answer….

One question... so mid sleeves needs protrusion or not? what if you install mid sleeves to interference fit? ...
@robertdouglas34562 жыл бұрын
Couldn't you weld the crack then machine it then sleeve it? I realize it might be cost prohibitive!
