Well, you really only have 2 viable options at this point for a block. Either go bigger with the bore with the .065" pistons, or use the other block. Even sleeving with thin wall sleeves isn't an option. The problem with other forums like Speed Talk is they are 99% V8 knowledge based, and thin wall sleeves dont protrude into the water jackets of hardly any V8 block because they are considerably thicker than the thin design of these 6 cylinders. Any money you spend after you do try to sleeve the cylinders with be futile, and end in disappointment for you.
