Finally Im down to the block and I know one cylinder is gone so the question is "TO SLEEVE OR
NOT TO SLEEVE"?

You sure can! I had the option of boring out to .90 or sleeving back down to standard size. I was told you can bore out to 1.25 at max.

Hope this helps!

You bet you can. I did it on my '48 A. The pitting was so deep, and it was bored out oversized already, that I had no alternative. It gave me a chance to go back to standard size. One word of caution: All machine shops can't do the job. They don't have the equipment to hold the block properly. The good news is that most machine shop people know each other and can usually point you in the right direction.

Linny, yes it works well. Should you? Depends on the condition of the pistons, if thay are good then sleeves are in order, if you need pistons then a rebore & new pistons are the way to go. The price isn't much different either way depending on where you get the machine work done.
