Advice on stroker build with cracked cylinder

Member RAMM has a thread going this very moment where he bores a 340 .100. I always was under the impression
that he knows what he's doing... stock stroke btw.

I would feel safer going 60 over than running a sleeved 500+hp block with the 2"+ crack in my block (see pic). The guys at Dandy Engines are famous for their aluminum 1000+HP gm and fords but have no experience with iron mopar 340's here in Australia so I'm falling back on the experience of the guys back home who've been there, done that hoping for some solid advice.

Hogwash, you can run a 340 that is 40 over.
I recently bought a 40 over 418 shortblock with 2 bolt pro gram caps. Plan to make decent steam with it
Every block is different. Cant throw out a blanket statement. Heck some might be thin at 20 over.
Regards the OP, i would sleeve it and run it.

The 40 over isn't my worry, spending big $ building a race motor with a crack in it is.
