In my experience you find holes in the sleeves from cavitation. You will most likely need sleeves

There are 3 ways to do job GOOD, FAST, CHEAP. YOU MAY CHOOSE 2. If its FAST & CHEAP it won't be GOOD, if it's GOOD & CHEAP it won't be FAST, and if its GOOD & FAST it won't be CHEAP!!!!

I found some good Used ones at sandy lake imp a few Times but I think I've cleaned them out. I used the a& I kits before with no issues. Venders on this sight should be able to help.

Get in touch with Don in MO, Bates City Mo. He's good and knows how to find stuff and how to fix the 190's.
