I've seen it done many times. In fact, I have 2 engines running that have been sleeved . When I was working in a restoration shop, we once had a Buick engine come in that was so badly corroded that we had to put a sleeve in a sleeve to get it going again. As far as I know, it is still going. Not that uncommon.
Note: The vendors sell sleeves so it must be done fairly frequently.
