I guess this could be true with any sleeve set, it just so happens that he is far better then anyone else I have used!!!
Thanks Marcus I appreciate the feedback
Thats basically the difference of how we resize our sets. We go for a "factory" taper and fit.
We adjust the taper in many different places on the sleeve, to create the best seal possible thru the whole stroke. Some engines even when fairly new dont have very good seal at the lower port windows. And thats what you are noticing. The engine will have a more solid idle, tune and just run better with that corrected.
Have a great weekend and again thanks for the update!
