Your best best is to just go ahead and buy an In-Frame Overhaul kit. I sell a lot of them and it is more expensive to just get a few pieces of a kit than it is to buy the entire kit. The manufacturers of the kits typically give large discount for buying the complete kit rather than individual parts. Another thing is that if your sleeves have grooves as bad as they sound then they are not any good anymore, if you hone them enough to get rid of the grooves then the bore is going to be too big for a set of rings to seal good, the bigger the bore gets the more end gap the rings will have, allowing more compression past. By the time you buy rings, sleeves and gaskets, you could buy an inframe overhaul kit and get the pistons as well as rod bearings. As far as the 4" overbore kit, that is now standard practice when overhauling an M and it has been that way for some time, it is actually more expensive to buy a rebuild kit to put it back to 3 7/8", than it is to buy a 4" overbore kit.
If you have any more questions or want to check on a price for a kit call me. (859) 433-5798
