97668, defect in block...bore or sleeve? Posted by Jungy, Apr-05-06 06:45 PM ok so i am building my bottom end to go turbo and i took my spare block with 77,000 miles into my machinist with my 20 over je pistons and i just got a call from him today saying he found a defect in cyl. #4 after boring it out, so i go in and look at it and it really isnt that bad and he said it would be fine if it were just being rebuilt for daily driving but i'm not sure because of it being boosted should i worry about the cyl. wall caving in, should i get it sleeved or leave it as is what do you guys think? heres the pic i took of it with my phone and you can see the defects are the 2 horizontal lines and the one vertical there were also 2 holes smaller than the tip of a pin in the cyl. wall near the defects. | |
