Default sleeving ls block

I've been building this engine for what seems like forever. I need help i have the head back from KG engineering he did a great job. I got the cams from web an the throttlebody from rc the intake manifold from extrudehone. My boy tells my that i should only go with darton for sleeves he had a ls turbo it ran 11.10 with him driving an full interior i got the greddy blue box an arais 8.5 pistons crower rods. I was just wondering whats the difference reliability difference in darton an golden egale. this car is mainly going to be driven everyday. An I want it to last. If i blow the motor thats my fault but i dont want it to be i went cheap anywhere so thats why it blew. thanks anything would help

Ok nevermind what I said before I was tired an had very little sleep. What i'm trying to ask is how reliable will this set up be. Should I spend the extra money an pick up the darton kit or go cheap an pick up GE. Is this stated a little clearer Dustin

a GEM sleeved block is guaranteed up to 40lbs of boost!

so it doesnt really matter which sleeve I go with ? this engine is either going into my 94 ls or a 94 si, i'm going to drive it everyday, I dont want to overheat. It will prob boost 15 everyday.
