• Advanced makes an 83-84 sleeve, Wiseco makes an 82-85 piston, send them to Eric Gorr. He's got some sort of coating for steel sleeves. Good for a LONG time.

  Does the cylinder have a steel sleeve or are the gouges in the aluminum. Nikasil is a nikel and silicone plating over aluminum. These came oem nikasil. To repair and replate nikasil, it's probably cheaper to have a steel sleeve put in.
