I had to use an adjustable one when I did my Lunati Stroker.

I saw a segment on TV a few weeks ago where they were at the facility where they assembled the LS6 engines. The compressor that the assembler was using looked just like a cylinder sleeve/liner. Liners are cheap and easy to come by but I think that it would have to be machined out at the top to allow the expanded rings to enter. Might be a good project for someone with access to a lathe...
