[chuck hahn]

Anyone know of a maker of stock 78 GS1000 sleeves?

Big dollars. You're better off looking on ebay for a low mileage block.

I bookmarked the Dynoman site but notice the are listing the size as 73-76MM. Stock is 70MM. What they are listing would be for a 1085 kit

Dynoman doesn't make sleeves. They get them from LA Sleeve. Just call them and tell them what you need.

roger that...thanks

This one looks good. Price is a little high but shipping is ridiculously high. Too bad.

Being cheap - and at the end of the world - I've swapped sleeves from one damaged block into another to make one good one....

Not difficult to pop one sleeve out with local heating without disturbing the others. Refrigerate the sleeve you're going to put in before doing the job.

Sounds more like pragmatic than cheap to me !
