You know G I thought of that but wasn't real thrilled about doing that but might go ahead and see what they say. I know they do that and are very good. I need one to be .30 over since the block was bored before. The block has been decked .009 allready. Not sure if that makes a difference. Also I don't guess it would hurt the balance of anything done with the pistons and rods and cranks. Will it hold up to over 400 horse.
I dug out another 010 block I had and will take it apar too. I am pretty sure it is a virgin block. Will definately talk to them tomorrow and see what they think about sleeving it.

Don't know. What are they. Mine are Manley gas ported 10-1 forged flatops already on scat rods balanced ready to put back in. I have all 8 and another new set of rings to put on them. They take the thinner 3 mm rings. I have 430 in the pistons minus the rings. I gave 130 for each set of rings. The rings are the file fit ones.

yea thats a hard one, the ones I got are just TRW forged. moot point i suppose.

why are you useing gas ported pistons anyways though? your going to scuff a bore if you detonate. old skool tech.
