Hello all, new guy here. I did some searching, but didn't find a P/N for a harmonic balancer speedi sleeve. I would like one that is commonly available and reasonably priced since it seems there are some higher than others. Any help would be appreciated.

Does anyone know if there is a pre-fix or extra digit added to the timing cover gasket kit so you get the one with a sleeve? The parts people around here are getting REALLY bad as of late, and our old school parts house closed and turned into another chain store.

What engine? The Slant and small block kits have a different part number for w or w/o sleeve. There is only about $3 difference in price now too. Fel Pro kits at Vatozone.

Sorry, it's the 440 for my X. I could check at my local Vatozone again. Yesterday I had Mr. Fast/Furious ricer looking dude helping me. He didn't even comment about the engine size like most parts monkeys do  Is there something I can add to the P/N, or will it show two kits? Travis..

Rock Auto shows one for $4.82.... but that is a ROL (ROL GASKETS Part # TC11204 {Harmonic Balancer Repair Sleeve) None listed by FelPro  Maybe they can cross reference the part number locally for you..

I think Napa had the sheapest sleeveNseals. That is what they are listed as in the Fel Pro literature IIRC.
Well, art is art, isn't it? Still, on the other hand, water is water! And east is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does. Now, uh... Now you tell me what you know.

This is the thin sleeve that slips over the harmonic balancer snout to cover the wear groove that can lead to leaks right? What on earth would the "installation tool" be????

National & C/R sell speedi-sleeves with a flanged area on the side that is installed first on the seal surface...That means the sleeve is pulled on rather than pushed on which can cause the sleeve to collapse...The flanged area is designed to be easily peeled off once the sleeve is installed...The installer is basically a tin cap that fits over the sleeve & applies pressure to the flange...It's a better design than the Fel-pro sleeve...

I had to put a National sleeve on one of the camshafts on my work Neon. Unless I'm an idiot, you can't put that sleeve on the intended way, lip first. There's not enough journal. I put it on backwards with a driver on the lip. But I have to admit, I was puckered the whole time I was driving it on.
Did you remove the rolled lip at the cut line?
