There's no way to tell how deep the rust goes without boring until you hit clean metal. If you have to go past 0.030" on that cylinder, but the others clean up at 0.030", you could have the one cylinder sleeved. The block is not junk with one bad cylinder and the sleeved one is as good as new.
If they all clean up at 0.060", you'll have to make the call on cylinder wall thickness. I wouldn't do it, but then I'm a little conservative. There are probably thousands of 0.060"-over 350's running all over the place.Last edited by techinspector1; 07-23-2007 at 10:40 PM.
