If there's a bit of a lip at the top, sleeves for the cylinders are just fine, particularly if you can tailor the metals for anti corrosion at the block to coolant junction.
Also used to work on odd ball engine restoration where blocks weren't available
Done all the time on old style big block diesels where you reman the engine with it sitting in the frame in the yard parking lot
