no liners like richie said. however, i believe it can be bored out for a liner to go in place. personally, i wouldn't recommend a liner. the machine work would probably run you more than what you might pay for a used, in good shape block.

Why is/are the cylinder/s scored? I'd be trying to figure that out before I worried about what to do about it. As jimbo said, the cylinders can be rebored, but I can't recall what the maximum is. For some reason 0.030" rings a bell, but don't quote me on that.
