+1 - at first i was thinking maybe turning the sleeve the hour or so would offset the other port, but from the pics it shows the whole fiasco is out of kilter- strange they let that get away...... im thinkin its going to be like new once you get it dialed in...
I double checked all the ports based on what the block was showing and they were all shifted approx 1/16" counterclockwise. I pulled the pin from the block, reseated the sleeve (verified with the port openings my measurements) and it appears to be dead on now. I installed it last night into a spare car, I'll see if I can get it fired up this evening and see how it runs now. I decided to hold on the sleeve modifications...for now
