By the time you buy four sleeves, have them installed and bored, it would be cheaper to find a block that meets your needs.

If it was mine, I would talk to racer about shipping it to him and let him bore it to 3.685. To do that you have to do an undercut at the bottoms and you're standard machine shops can't, he can. You ship him a 1.8L block and you get back a 2.0L. He'll probably be glad to ship you a set of piston to match at a reasonable price.

You do realize Wisco makes a .044 oversize piston for that bore. Unless it has some major gouges, a .014" could clean it up.
