I wanted to ask anybody that has a sleeved block if you have any trouble with your motor running any hotter? Also, are there are any sleeves that are better for a daily driver....etc... I'm thinking about building my bottom end this winter and I could use any info you could give me...Thanks! (I want to go to a 84mm bore with 9.5:1 pistons in my B16...am I dreaming?)

 

It don't see how it could run hotter with sleeves, hondas are already sleeved you just bore them out and press in stronger ones

 

Even if you now have a solid deck setup?

 

Does anyone here know this?

 

I haven't heard of any of the sleeve manufacturers having problems with this. If your really worried about it just get bensons sleeves. They're open deck, strong as ----, and you won't have to worry about heating. (not sure if you would anyway)
