Default Can this cracked block be fixed?

Well I got a pic of the block the # 1,2,3 cylinder sleeves are cracked. All the way to were the coolant cooles down the cylinder walls. I was wondering can it still be repaired? I have pics but, I really don't know how to post the image. [img]block.bmp[/img]

it can be fixed by sleeving. but it depends on how bad the crack is.. it can oly be determined once we check it out.

Cracked sleeve = re-sleeveable, cracked block = garbage.

aluminum can be tig welded but it's probably better to get another block....
