How many cylinders need to be sleeved? Other than being a little expensive, there's nothing wrong with a properly-installed sleeve. When I was building race engines as projects with my high school auto mechanics students, we sleeved several "worn out" Chevy 350 blocks that were given to me by race team owners. 8 sleeves later, we has standard-bore engines turning out 600+ HP on the dyno. Of course, I was using the blocks as teaching tools for my advanced-level engine machining students, so labor cost was not a factor.
