There would be no sense in resleeving the block if you are going to maintain standard bore. If you are going to have the block sleeved go ahead and have it resleeved to 84.5 and have a nasty 2L motor. You can sell the standard bore pistons at a slight loss and buy larger diameter pistons that will achieve your 11:1 compression ratio.

Trust me, in the end you will be mush happier!!!!

The advantage of having a standard bore, resleeved block would be having stronger cylinder walls for his high compression sprayed motor..... that should be enough reason right there.... then, spray the piss out of it.. but if you can afford the matching headwork, 84-85mm would be badass.... just sell your pistons or call the company (was is arias?) and see if they'll let you send yours in for an even trade...

You might want to look into golden eagle as well... from what I have heard, they run a little cooler than darton sleeved blocks... but like i said, it's just what I'VE heard, if i'm wrong, please correct me...
