The point of taking it to 84mm would be to sleeve the block, so the walls will be just as thick as stock, and able to hold 40psi from GEM.

sure you can run 84.5 or even 85mm i have seen. most times when you hurt the walls it will need to go .040 over. In a street car though i dont see any reason to go over 81-81.5mm bore to start out. the gains are not worth the risk in my opinion.

yeah, the sleeves come 84mm from darton but it still has the same wall thickness. you cant make a sleeve thicker when they already touch.
