i know you know this, just curious why you opted to not go the safer route.

What happened to the first block can not be fixed even if it happened again, the leak is at the bottom of the sleeve.
If a stock bore 86 mm motor can give you 150,000 miles then if my 2.4 can give me 75,000 miles I will be good. My SERR has just over 70,000 miles so no worries there. Most motor when you rebuild them just need new rings and a rehoned block so no problems there.
