Sleeve boring/honing?

Can most machine shops likely bore a sleeve out, say 1/16 of an inch? Do the sleeves need to be in the block or can it be done with the sleeves only? Suppose it`d be cheaper to have custom sleeves made?
 
What type of engine? Guessing a wet sleeve type. Depends on how thick the sleeve is and how hard you re going to run. I ve heard stories of sleeves being bored out and splitting when run real hard. That s why sometimes going the custom route with ductile iron sleeves is the only way
 
Thanks for the replies. Yes, They are wet sleeves. For a CC/DC Case, 4 inch to 4 1/16 is what I`m looking at. As far as I know, no one makes new 4 1/16 sleeves for these.
