I think you will be out of luck. Golden Eagle is one of the cheaper places to get a block sleeved and its still $800.

yea and you can also pay in the long run... i wouldn't buy a used sleeved block off h-t

$800 and up is what it cost to get a block sleeved from a rep. company...
not expensive if you think of the piece of mind it gives you...
that and Golden Eagle give you the warranty

I'm just gonna throw this out there. I don't know what your power goals are, but we have been seeing A LOT of 550-630whp cars running on stock sleeves. Stock will hold up on a good tune. I'd say 500whp pretty safely
