SLeeve it. We did that to a Vega block back in 73 at tech school. We surfaced the deck and put it together it worked perfect.

They already have cast in iron sleeves. The Vega blocks were all aluminum with a high silicone content. GM acid etched the cylinders to expose more silicone which is what the pistons and rings contacted. It proved to be a bad idea.
