Glad you got the sleeves removed. I would set those valves somewhat loose until you get the engine running. .012" on the intake and .014"
on the exhaust. This will probably change when the engine gets up to operating temperature.

You should clean the block area good where the
old sleeves were installed. When you're ready
to install the new sleeves you keep them in your
freezer for a few days and they should fit very easily into the block without having to drive them in. Once you have them installed and they have a few hours to thaw, I would dry them with
clean rags or paper towels and coat the sleeves with engine oil. If you're thinking about reusing
the old sleeves I would have them checked for wear
at a good machine shop. New sleeve and piston kit would be the way to go. The crankshaft should
also be measured for wear or any egg-shaping. This and tight cam bearings determine your engine
having good oil pressure. Hal
