Default new engine

im thinking of getting a new engine for my tc. on dezods website they have a sleeved block and non sleeved block and im just not sure which would be best, im running nine pounds of boost right now. im thinking the sleeved block would be better and able to withstand more power but they nonsleeved block is so much cheaper. any opinions?

Dont need a sleeved block. Stock sleeves are good for 700 whp.

Yeah def no need for sleeves really unless you plan on doing something crazy, I and several others are in the 500 whp range on 20+ psi on stock sleeves. I plan on pushing mine up to 25-26 psi soon and hopefully getting to 550-600whp

Why do you need a new engine? Money could be better spent....

ok non sleeved block would be better. and i want a new engine bc it will be cheaper then buying all the parts seperatly. I was looking at getting a stroker kit w/acl bearings, stage 2 cams, +5 valves, springs and retainers threw BC but all thats over 5K and a new engine is just over 3K fully built so..... oh minus the head just the block.
