Flange diameter is 92mm. I've never seen one bad enough to need a sleeve, and I've done a lot of red block rear main seals. Volvo crankshafts are made of mighty fine steel, and while the last engine I went through needed a second size overbore, the crank needed nothing. If there is a slight groove, seat the seal more, or less, so the seal lip isn't running on the groove.
