Clean everything to metal, including the rim groove, but do not "sand" them. Freeze the sleeves for an hour to shrink them. Warm the block with a heat lamp for an hour in each hole being assembled, and have at hand an oak or hardwood block about 2"X4"X10", and a 2# hammer. Keep the sleeve cold transporting it in a towel if a long way, then slide it into the hole. It should go in well, and be a hand push to the bottom. If it needs a tap, use the block and hammer nice and square on the top. Make sure they go in till bottomed on the rim.

If they can be removed by hand when allowed to sit and become the same temp (especially ones that went in easily to the bottom, that bore may need a larger OD sleeve. Not common. The bores were made for select fit, and have numbers stamped next to them, your sleeves will probably be great on A or B or C size bores, but get progressively looser. D bores may be a loosness issue. I would not use any liquid retainer. It does not transfer heat or allow repair easily later. JimN
