Seems the most of the cyls. broke from the top down, Thats where the Pauter Power sleeves (Or some kind of sleeves? Maybe same thing I was talking about to fit 92mm to 94 Heads may be good for your cyl's also!?) would have helped. They ave two cooling fins on them (Also as you said, someone could make some a bit shorter so they don't interfere with seating,) and are heated lightly and dropped onto 92 cyls. But, the cut is past the head bolts! I dont have a turbo set up so Off they came. Wonder who made the Biral cyl's ? Alum.fins look cool and must be cooler than steel? Here is a pic of Birals with Power sleeves. G
