Thanks all for the responses. So that you all know, this is not a hot project for me as it's a third block I have laying around taking up space. I'm am trying to disposition known damage to determine whether or not it is even worth keeping or offering it to others.
I believe it's a standard bore block now. It's what I was told when I acquired it. Taking .015" out per side makes it thinner yet. Any idea if an ultrasonic thickness meter works on cast?
Seriously would consider the option depending on cost.
:rofl:
Lol, I haven't planted in years! When I did, it wasn't pretty. Defiantly not a green thumb here. Then too, I could take John's approach.
So if I understand ya', end the sleeve bottom at the top of the breakout? What's typical cost for a single installed these days?
