you can get new sleaves but it's a bitch to do..just get a new short block for like 600 bucks.

as long as the chips are below your oil rings on the pistons you should be ok. If not then have your machine shop reslieve the block. The best price down here is like 80 bucks a hole. But two sleeves and boring them to match the rest shouldn't be all that much.
