Got a good day in on it today! Dad helped me put in the sleeves this morning (if I knew it was going to be that easy I would have done it myself!)

We made spacers to go under the pedestals to raise everything up and it's perfect now. Over 100 psi compression on each cylinder and it hasn't even ran yet!! See pics below... Steven
