[QUOTE="motometal, post: 165576, member: 24727"] I'm gonna play the devil's advocate here, even though I agree that plating is the best overall (if done properly). 1. Sleeves do not flake or peel. 2. Since cast iron has a lower coefficient of thermal (volumetric) expansion, it can provide a straighter, rounder cylinder than aluminum 3. Sleeves can be re-bored, and honed more easily 4. Cast iron has a built in lubricant called graphite-it's part of the structure but, yea, go with the plating... [/QUOTE]
