Might be able to get away with a #5 cylinder sleeve but that remains to be revealed. There was a ton of work to get to this point. Going to call around the regional machine shops, ideas and brainstorming welcome.
The local machinist I used for my head has a waiting list for engine work. Going to be on the phone tomorrow for other machinists to see if I can get the block done sooner. Talked yesterday with Jerry who offered up wise advice and support, wish I lived closer.
