It may end up smelling like a mix of cheeseburgers and pizza, and Guinness flavored vodka. Had to shim the outside of the liner .005" for a snug fit and it so happened a Guinness beer can is .005". Half of it made in the USA and the other half in Russia with a dash of Ireland. LOL.

No Guinness beer was sacrificed in the production of this high quality model engine.
Beer and soft drink cans are good shim material.
