    Yeah, I'm afraid your gonna need a sleeve..That engine looks to have been built, ran, possibly cracked, then torn down and sold......BTW: Store that crank standing UP!

    The engine was never ran, there was still assembly lube on it from when it was first built. Do I store the crank standing up to stop it from warping or something like that?
