This sleeve is for those that want the best option for a 14.5 cubic inch motor. It's for a block that has a 1" deck extension welded to the top so you can improve the rod ratio by using a 4.5" rod. For this application you can bore the block leaving an aluminum shoulder at the bottom of the bore for the sleeve to rest on. In addition to the shrink fit the sleeve is held in place at the bottom of the bore by the shoulder and at the top by the cylinder head. Even with the stroker crank and the long rod the piston won't go down the bore far enough to rub on the aluminum shoulder at the bottom. An aluminum piston rubbing against an aluminum bore will tear things up in no time!!
You can use a 2.717" bore or a 2.736" bore and be under the 14.5 Cubic inch maximum.
The 2.756" bore would be just over 14.5 Cubic inches.
I have the pistons and the stroker cranks in stock.
The sleeve dimensions are:
2.698" ID
2.918" OD
3/32" Wall
5 5/16 long
