98s have thin sleeves and can only be honed to a .005 oversize that's why I asked for the model year. All I can say is that you'll have to tear it down and inspect it. If there is any bore damage then move on. It will probably cost you a couple of grand for the parts and machine work. That's why the economy short blocks sell so well. I've seen as low as $2800 for a stock bore short block.
