Question for the wise ones


Recommended Posts

So after further research I ran across THIS SITE wich states that the stock sleeves are in fact cast iron. So I won a hundred bucks and those of you who didnt know now do. Thanks guys. :beer:

 

Technically that sleeve on the site is aftermarket, so that wouldn't prove much. They are aluminum with cast iron sleeves though.

yeah but if you look for the "type" then follow it down for the banshee, CI stands for cast iron. That is where it explains that it has a cast iron liner that needs to be bored to insert the aftermarket ones.

 

My motor guy heats the stock cylinders in an oven, and presses the sleeves out.

what sleeves do you use for replacements? I thought that sounded odd myself.

Sometimes he gets them from LA Sleeve, sometimes from a place in Boring Oregon, sometimes from another place in Arizona, and there is another local company around here that I cant remember the name of.
