well
it is pretty hard to say anything from your description. i would have an experienced machinist look at it and take measurements to see how much taper there is in the bores. he will have books to see how much is allowed before work is needed.
it really would have been a good idea to take compression and leak down tests before tearing the engine apart.
the bottom end s are really robust and it is not uncommon for them to show vitrually no wear at 250k.
since it is apart i would do a valve job probably at least. and seals. and valves for those that are too worn.
the job of knocking out the sleeves and reinstalling new ones is a lot of time and work. the sleeves arent much but after installing the new ones you have to bore them to match your pistons and mill the tops off. it is also not a bad idea to deck the block to remove the twist it will have after 250k miles.
no idea of the cost until the needs are assessed.
