When I was a kid, we had a '41 H that when we went to overhaul it, you could pull the sleeve out w/no effort-new TSC sleeve fell in. We used some of the black "permatex" gasket cement to cement it in. Let it set up real well before we put the head back on. Ran it that way for several years. Dad traded it for a SM, out of town. Years (+/-10) later, I was working in the community where he traded it & saw the tractor still running. It had a broken rear wheel that had been braized, so you could tell it easily. Talked to the guy who owned it. Said it was a good old tractor & still ran well. I'd think w/modern stuff like the "lock-tight" products, you could "cement" it in-you're probably not going to go out & plow all day w/it are you? Anyway, what have you got to loose, except time & gaskets. (My $0.02 worth. jal-SD)
