Good sleeves/parts?

[Colin89]

I have got myself a b18c5 block for my engine build with a cracked piston and a damaged sleeve! I want to go with oversized pistons maybe 84mm! Can anyone tell me the best sleeves to get? and where to get them from? Also what other parts are good in terms of pistons and conrods? Just one more question? how do I check if my crank is not damaged in this motor or is it possible?

With pistons and conrods removed, but with crank sitting still in mains bearings, (remove one mains cap at a time and replace when you go to the next one),replace a bolt in one of the holes, use a strong mag-stand and a dial test indicator stuck to the bolt.. set it to zero with the finger of the dti just touching the journal at the highest point then rotate the crankshaft slowly whilst carefully watching your dti. You factory manual has all of the tolerences and service limits. As for checing the conrod journals are still in-round, you can either spend alot of money and have a jig made OR you can simple take it to a machine shop and get your cash out.
