Default Clean up and sleeve questions

I have access to a sonic wall tester, but the issue is how accurate will it be with a sleeved cylinder? If I recall correctly the hole is bored for an interference fit and then the sleeve is chilled to shrink it for installation. Now there are two surfaces for the transducer to "ping" off of. It might confuse the checker.

The block's casting dates and cylinder head casting dates are within a month so together with the block code it seems like it would be worthwhile to put it back in service.

More measurements are being taken to see if 0.040 will clean it up. Taking it out to 0.060 is nervous time. Would rather not if it can be brought back to standard.

Ohio crank is making a forging for this engine and Crower is making forged stock Pontiac dimension rods. Just got done assembling a set of Mike Wasson Tri-power carb and intake for this engine.

These parts are going in because the stock crank is already 0.030 under and while it is apart only the best parts are going back in.

Why is it apart? Long story for another thread.
