Default safest big bore?

what is the point of breaking when it comes to big bores on sleeved 4 cyl engines. When I called on my status for my block they (goldeneagle) said " oh you had something special done" doesnt scare me but will my block be safe with 86mm godzilla sleeves.

I can't find anything on that site about their honda gaskets. I don know they make them. I tried ordering one last week, but they are on back order for a while.

Remember, when you bore what becomes thinner are the cylinder walls, not the sleeves.
