Thanks for clearing that up about the installation process. I would be curious how you deal with the o-rings? The manual shows three large o-rings between the sleeve and the cylinder head. Wouldn't the heat damage them? Also, would freezing the new sleeves in dry ice shrink them enough to slide into a room temperature cylinder housing. Or do you have to heat the housing up as well?
