truthfully i dont know why the **** you would want to use stock internals and a nice new GE sleeved block. Id wait til you get the money for new internals. And no your GE sleeved block will not be able to hold more boost with stock internals. Mainly b/c I dont know of anyone that really blew their stock sleeves before stock pistons/rods.

I was just thinking the same thing. Truthfully, just save up, take your time and do it right. If you're just looking for 12-15 lbs right now, just go get your car tuned as is. I've been running 12.5 lbs on a bone stock LS for a while now with no problems. Tuning is key

A billon psi. There are so many different varibles when turboing a motor. What turbo you put on your car depends alot on turbo size gear ratio cfm flow ect. St00pid was running somewhere around 400hp on a stock internal LS, but it was tuned to the hilt. Save your $ and have the motor built right.

Sell the block, then use the money to buy forged rods and pistons for a stock sleeved block.

Unless you plan on making insane power the general consensus is that stock sleeves are perfectly capable of making big power.

The question you should be asking is how much boost will my stock parts hold. A lot depends on how good your tune up is as to whether it will last for two weeks or as long as a few months.

Okkaaayyy...well the reason i ask is because i know of many people that run totally stock Ls bottom and manage to boost to 9-10psi fine with tuning, i just did a trade for the GE block and im not planning to go all out and i thought since a stock block can handle with good tuning at 9-10 psi with stock internals, and i have a sleeve block and not planning to over 15lb i thought it would be okay, or at least i thought so, so my question is can i or not run this block with stock internal 13psi? thats all im asking, and thats all i wanted to know, but then since i just got hire today , and working again, maybe i can wait and get pistons/rods But my question hasnt been answer yet

Heres my turbo setup btw:
SP Log style manifold
SP 2.5"-3" dp-3" full exhaust
Garrett T4OE Stage three turbine
550's
Walboro 255 fuel pump
Uberdata
Tial wastegate 35mm

Just got a GSR head from a friend, so im going Ls-Vtec-Turbo

Someone just answer my question, most likely, i am gonna get some new piston and rods.

You CAN run it but you cannot predict how long it will live. The tune-up would need to stay perfect
