if your goals are aprox 450hp and under, you can get away with stock sleeves, providing your tune is in good shape. the best insurance for reliability is always to overbuild your motor, so if you have the cash i would recommend to sleeve it. but you can still make really good power minus the sleeves.

Thanks for all the advice. I am going to sleeve it.

Would cost more in the long run if I break something
