WOW, that is a serious crack, I wonder what caused that?
Could you see any other damage, like a frozen water cracks?

Yikes. Might still be able to sleeve it... BTW, Will Burns got an alum engine from me that had multiple cylinders that looked like that and he said he could fix it.

Hey I have uploaded a pic of no5 cylinder the crack is the whole way through.
Please take the head gasket off and show us how does the the aluminum cast be around that much cracked sleeve? Hard to believe the cast iron can expand that much without damaging the thin alloy cast.

It looks like you have an empty quote.

Check that coding and syntax, and get back to us.

I bet it's fantastic.

If I had that in my shop I would certainly put a liner in it. I and many others have very successfully put sleeves in blocks far worse off than that one. Hope you didnt give up on it!
