I have a tractor engine that is in pretty good shape but I want to bore it a 1/16". I've been told you shouldn't bore the sleeves out of the block, that they will be distorted because there is no way to hold them in a true position. The tractor is going to be used for pulling, the pistons have been ordered and the sleeves are already out. Does anyone out there no anything about this?

I've been told that it is very hard to bore a sleeve without specialized equipment. The sleeve needs to be held with the same pressure from all side or else the sleeve will be distorted & not bored true.

It can be done but the expense would outway it. Their are usually oversize kits available,but
you have already ordered the pistons. They usually jump 1/8".
I watche a 350 chevy being bored and the mach. sat right on the previous cylinder and looked like a hd. magnetic drill press, but bolted to the head bolts. If you don't have a lg. bore maybe
they could do it for you with the sleeves in the block. AL

Probably won't be able to bore a wet sleave because they just start turning(spinning) if in the block. Dry sleave might be okay.
