The kind/amount of help you need isn't going to be found in any single thread....sorry

The fact that this wasn't a clue just reinforces my view.

I have something for you to work on for your nest post: Learn to make an intelligible that doesn't require a decoder ring or for a person to read 3+ times to try to understand your line of thought.

Thank you

Hey ej1bseries, the max you can go on stock sleeves for your LS block is 81.75mm. Going 82mm is really pushing the limit on the stock sleeves and boring out stock sleeves in general is a very risky maneuver to do.

Mr.eg, i was using ctr pistons because i only went to 81.25mm and i wanted to go with a high compression set up. So i decided to go with those, this time around im not sure if thats what im going to use since ctr pistons only come 81.5

Question:

why are you so compelled to go with a BIG BIG bore & HIGH HIGH compression on i assume a daily driven car. As said above, everything you need to learn will not be found in here....

Just answer this......how much hp are you looking to get.

Thank you Golden Eagle, and builda'teg its not going to be a daily drivin car, and my thought of going with a big bore and high compression it to get some good power with a all motor set up. And im looking for around 200-230hp.

i agree its not, i have a b16 which is completely done, but now my worrys are on the block. If i cant go to big on the bore i will just stay at 81.5mm. By any chance do you know after what compression ratio should i be on race gas?
