I was talking to JBrady via the phone for about 30 minutes today and we talked about Darton Wet Sleeves (MID). The wet sleeve is about 140 USD each and the labor about 1000 for the installation. I wonder anyone been thinking about increase the bore size by changing the sleeves.

What do u guys think re sleeving with 2uzfe crank?
If possible, this is what i am thinking of
3.990" bore (LS1 sleeve) with 3.31" stroke (2uzfe crank)
The standard bore sizes are:
1uz = 3.44"
2uz = 3.70"
3uz = 3.58"
The LS1 sleeves are very close to the upgrade size. Anything above 4" would be too big and anything less than 3.70" would not worth the investment.
Cubic Inch Calculator and it will yield 5425.69 cc or 5.4 liters.
With the new sleeves, we also use the LS1 forged pistons and forged LS1 rods also..... Very strong parts and also at great prices.
