Personally I hate loose sleeeves. I honed many a block to install .002 sleeves so they fit nice and tight. However, a lot of the diesel engines came new pretty darn loose. When the 560 came out, many had leaking head gaskets so we had to pull several heads. A lot of the time I would stick my hand in cyl, make a fist, turn engine and sleeve would move up so as I could add shims under flange. Also, on the 450 diesel, they had the thin sleeve from factory and were a slip fit. Most didn't give trouble, of course some did. I guess what I am getting at is if you cannot get ahold of a slightly over size sleeve, don't have the option of having a sleeve made for it, don't use it for your long hours of heavy work, I wouldn't be too worried about using some loctite on it . Of course, I don't have to warranty any work I do from my chair on the computer.
