@@paragonengines1924 Yeah, it's got to be a PITA to try to get that flat exactly where it needs to be before pressing it in so it lines up with the other one. I think I would figure out a way to get the sleeve in one at a time and let the boring bar make the clearance. Or mill the flat after pressing it in?

Nice!!! I had to have #5 sleeve put into my 6.2L. I just picked the block last Wednesday
It happens!
Is it harder to press a sleeve in the hole right after it is bored before the next one or is it harder to mill the flat?😎👍
I think its more nerve wracking to make sure the sleeves line up properly next to each other!

It's the way of the small block, always has been.

@@johnharrop5530 nice!
Dont cut both ways on a mill
It's fine for small cuts. Just have to keep a watch out for the backlash.
