Original engine sleeved: is it still good?

I am considering buying a 71 Trans Am restoration project. The original 455 HO block sat for many years and as a result of water damage, needed four of the cylinders sleeved. What questions should I be asking the machine shop that did the work to make sure it was properly done. Can the block still be trusted to hold up? It is going to be a restoration back to stock with limited street use in the future. Thanks, NJSteve
