Regardless of who makes or supplies the liners , with the correct protrusion, the liner will hourglass .
<div>Only way to correct this is the use of a torque plate and then proceed with boring and honing to final finish size . </div>

</div>
<div>Yes , a lot of work but you’ll get better ring seal and hopefully not stick a piston :-)</div>

I came across this advertisement today and was curious if anyone has used these liners and done so w/o fo8 gaskets as described in the listing.
