I'm having my 455 rebuilt.

It has cylinder wall damage from a valve that broke off and got chewed up inside cylinder #3.

The block will be tested for cracks, but visually the other cylinders look good and the damaged cylinder looks like it can be bored without a sleeve.

Should I just have that one cylinder sleeved and bored to match the others.

Or should I have all the cylinders bored to match and avoid having the cylinder sleeved?
