Default B17 sleeveing

If I sleeve my b17 and I get ctr pistons to put in it will they still be able to fit?

Please help a noob out. Just really worried that I would be wasting money.

Why bother sleeving if you're going to use an OEM piston? Bore to 85mm and get some customs!

EDIT, I'm in CA and have PCT in my B17a. You HAVE to get it tuned to run right. 12.25+ compression is fun, but not on 91 octane.

Then spray them with a $4 can of carb cleaner, don't spend $1000+ on sleeves. How do you have carbon buildup on the walls?

May I recommend P30's as opposed to PCT's. You'll have more valve clearance, a bit less compression, and easier/less expensive tuning when compared to the PCT's.

There is no need to resleeve unless (1) you want to increase displacement, (2) you are going to run boost, and/or (3) the engine has been bored to the service limit.
