You just glue those suckers in there or something? Looks like you used some sort of epoxy.

What kind of loctite did you use? The Red 272? they make retaining compound (680) that will never let go but I guess you never know if you'll need to take them out

The Red. they fit pretty snug so hopefully they won't decide to go anywhere.

Yeah that would kinda suck if they decided to rotate in there.

If you have ever seen a 6 port sleeve, you'll notice there would be no way of it rotating. Sliding, back and forth, yes. But if you locktite them in, it should be fine. CJ

My firend just bought a motor from rob for his SE. 5yr package with small street port, and 6-port sleeves.... We'll see how it runs when its back together, the old motor comes out tommarow, and then we have to wait for the new one to show up.

The only other mod on the car with be a bonez cat-mid pipe, and a brand new street clutch.
Should be pretty fun, the suspension was just refreshed last month with new spings/shocks.
