depends on the condition whether you'd have to get it resleeved or re-honed or what not.

but getting a new block doesn't hurt.

I don't think it needs to get re-sleeved unless I want it to be a 2 litre. I might just end up having it bored over and just get forged pistons. thanks!

Well, I figured that since I have to get new ones why not get a better set. Right?
