Default Question for you guys with sleeved blocks ( Cracked sleeve Limitations )

How far down can the cylinder wall be cracked before the block can be considered Scrap...??
Because I have a Extra block that I wan to get sleeved but it's all the way to the bottom and I'd say theres about 1/2 of an inch still left in the #2 factory sleeve at the bottom..

Any Help would be great
TIA

I would take a detailed pic of it (maybe with a ruler next to the crack as well) and send it to Vince
at sales@goldeneaglemfg.com


They will probably be able to help you.
