Finished the last of the major tear-down this morning - removed the cylinder sleeves. To do this I had to buy a sleeve pulling disk (not cheap) and then used the set-up in the below pics. For the past several days the sleeves got an application of penetrating oil which seemed to do the trick, the sleeves came out pretty easily. Now just waiting for the parts I ordered to arrive. When they do I'll bring the head, along with the new valves/springs/etc., and the crank to the machine shop to get worked on. Also, in another week or so the radiator should be back from the radiator shop and we'll then see if I can get this beast back together....
