Its impossible to get a "perfect" cast sleeve made. No matter how you look at it, it will still need to get bored/honed.

having a sleeve that you only need to hone after installation eliminates the step of putting the torque plate on the block and adjusting the machine to take a few millimeters (1 or 2 or 3) of the inside diameter .
I think it would be better to pay more dollars and spend less time .
In the industry world it is always better to start with measurement that are closer to what your finished product needs to be .
