[SEL] Miami Project - Another Hunk of Iron #3

[Tommy Turner]

JB,
   
    The biggest problem you would have would be holding the sleeve in 
place.  If you were to bore it out enough to create a water jacket you 
would then have to create some sort of way to attach it.  You could get 
creative and do a bunch of milling, etc.  I have, from time to time, 
seen the T cylinders and parts floating around.  You can tie up a bunch 
of $$ in patterns, casting, machining, etc.  I think if you're willing 
to make this a long range project, you can find the parts you need.  
Thanks for the nice comments.

TT

>Tommy, beautiful work on the reproductions. I need a cylinder and head for a 2hp F-M T, was thinking about making a pattern for the cylinder. My idea was to use one core for the inside of the cylinder, then bore it and install a sleeve. This would eliminate the need to cast the water jacket, a much simpler casting and less chance for a blow out. Anyone have thoughts on this?
