Norman,
That sequence is incorrect. Weld first. Bore out to new size. Order sleeve.
Press in place after arrival. Simple. Try LA sleeve in the States. If they
don't have it, they'll make it for you. Good picing as well.

Ed,

I shall follow your suggestions and check with Clevite, for sleeves.
It had not occured to me! The weld I would undertake would be in the
aluminum cylinder block, after the defective sleeves have been pressed
put.

Cheers,
Norman C.
