On pulling the wet sleeves...I just pulled the sleeves in my Super C a couple of weeks ago. They were tough. I'd heard that you could set a block of wood on the crank throw and turn with the hand crank to push them out - no go. The I pounded them gently with a 2 lb. shop hammer and wooden drift - split the drift. Then I made a puller which was basically a long bolt with flat metal plates at each end with holes in the middle. The bottom one had a nut welded to it. I inserted the bolt through the top plate, down through the cylinder, then threaded on the bottom plate and arranged it so that it hit the sleeve and didn't touch the cam or block casting. Then inserted some 1" spacers on top of the block, under the top plate. Turned the center bolt until it pulled the sleeve out about 3/4". From there they would come out pretty easy, since the sleeves are tapered. One I had to lift the whole 1" with the puller. A couple of them took some pretty good tugs on a 1/2" breaker bar to get them started out. The first center bolt I used was 1/2", and I stripped the threads on it. The 2nd one was a 3/4" rod with a 3/4" bolt welded to the end. Didn't strip that one.

Maybe I could have pounded them out if the crank was out of the way, but I think it would have broken the sleeves first.

Mine had the 3-1/4" pistons and the sleeves were worn out. Replaced them with a Tisco set from E-bay.

Good luck,
Bill
