Honestly, I'm looking at maybe, maybe 240-230whp right now at 8psi. Down the road, hopefully 300whp at 12psi when I install a new EMS

You will be perfectly fine on stock sleeves.

mines getting tigged in and the block will be machined. ive heard tons of good and bad. the bad is mostly bandwagon crap though that people say. one or two bad stories turns into twenty..."I heard this, or, I seen this."
