HI TIM, I also have a SM you will enjoy it. You can replace the sleeve your self pretty easy.The problem is if its cracked it likely to have a cracked block also.Depending on the size of the bore you can buy a set of sleeves or maybe even only one I think I would do them all with new rings my self.I took an old GM round steel thing that holds the spare tire in to the compact cars of the 80s or maybe 90s too I dont know.It has a nut welded in the center I ground it to the size of the sleeve and put a piece of threaded rod in it up through the bore and made a piece of steel about 5 " long and two " wide for it to go through prop it up on the block with some kind of shims I used sockets and the threaded rod goes through the center put a nut on and tighten her down and draw that begger out of there.If you tell me what size bore you have I will see about sleeves for you.
