I just had new top hat sleeves pressed into my block to correct a slipped sleeve (cylinder 4), but before I start re-assembling the motor, I also wanted to "hot seal" it to assure that any remaining microcracks get filled.

Has anyone ever done this and can recommend a hot seal as well as a procedure to do it?

Thanks.

 

I found several products at summit

In collaboration with Drow, came up with a simple hot water tank and old transfer pump.

 

Thx u

 

still couldn't figure out the best product choice...... in the end flipped a coin.

 

add cement to the water jackets?
because racecar?

hard blok is the best for that.




we are referring to filling voids on the walls and help with heat dissipation and protection to combat future micro fissure bs

 

you said LSx motor swap wrong hahahahaha

 

Should you hot seal before or after pressing new sleeves in?

 

Exactly why I have a disclaimer

 

After with heads (all water jackets and ports) assembled. Is how I'm doing iy
