If your planning on using the old sleeves you might find you can not gap standard rings properly as the wear in the cylinder is to much (low compression due to excessive end gap).
The 1/16th of an inch difference equates to roughly to .060 or 60 over. Bit much to be cheating with but do-able. I have bought 60 over rings and gap them in old cylinders before with good results (cheap fix).
Most enines that wear to the point they need rings usally go 30 over in the rebuild process.
