Re-sleeving cylinders?

I would like to take some 2.7 cylinders and have them resleeved to 2.8's and have them nickesiled, why is this not done more and is there a particular cylinder well suited for this? if you buy the mahle 2.8's they give you pistons that wont work with 2.4/2.7 heads so I figure to get some JE pistons to suit the cylinders......somebody tell me if this/me is stupid

I think you will find as time goes on here there is more then one way to do things...awhile back some one posted pics of cyl. he had made!! so if it is cheaper to do that then buy new I say explore it, exploit it, and tell the rest of us!!

Last fall I sold a single 904 cylinder on eBay. To my eye it was badly worn out. The buyer said he knew where he could get it bored out and re-nickesiled.
I'll check to see if I still have an e-mail for the guy.
