Cylinder scratch
yup , one of my cylinder has a few scratch , in my opinion they are not bad.
my problem is in the book they just say 'if deep scratch replace the block'. Now what the heck is a deep scratch ???? if i can avoid to sleeve the engine my wallet would appreciate... of course the machine shop says i have to sleeve, anybody has guidelines ?? thx |

It is hard to tell from the photos, but that cylinder looks pretty scored up to me. Can you feel the scratches or catch them with a fingernail? I am inclined to say the shop is correct and you will need to sleeve it.

new block from monkeywrenchracing would possibly be cheaper than a sleeve job
