It's a very basic machine operation.



Just curious but how much would it cost to buy, install, bore, and finish hone 8 sleeves?


I used to charge 25-40 for the sleeve, depending on the sleeve and 85 dollars for the first hole.

To do a V8 total was 450 plus the sleeves. I save at least 6 different T/A blocks plus I can't say how many fork lift engines plus all the 1 and 2 sleeve deals I did.

When done correctly, you'd be hard pressed to even see the sleeve.


Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston
