Correct on the sleeve mod. IMO, the sleeves seemed to thin to be the limitation of the compression point when tightening up the hardware for the bushing. I'll dig mine out after work today & look. I ended up using my OE uppers & just modified it to clear the steering shaft as I felt it was the cleaner alternative vs steering knuckles.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
