I have done my 706 a couple times. Basically the same engine. An over bore sleeve has a thinner wall allowing for the larger piston. You think the cylinder or where the lip of the sleeve goes needs boring? Turn the sleeve over and see if the lip fits into the bore at the top of the block. I just figured all of these over bore kits were to be installed in a standard block. When I installed the 760 sleeves I put them in a freezer the day before to "shrink" them. I also filled the block with water nearly to the top of the block deck and put a light bulb in each (trouble light). If left it heat a good part of the day. This was an in-frame overhaul so it held water. They were much easily to drive in although it still took some driving. Used a thick metal plate (3/4") on top of the sleeve with driving blows. I believe I sprayed some thin lubricant on both the cylinder and sleeve. Good luck.
