Put it back to stock is one, or just get another stock block and don't push it as far.

You can always take the loss and sell the car "as is," but I don't recommend it

I have a spare short block if you busted the upper sleeve support

Mr belvedere has been sleeping a lot of blocks with 2x hardness/tensile oem size sleeves
