I might just build out this motor without sleeves (but with all the other goodies) and think hard about that billet block. I can keep this engine under 750 WHP and be happy for a while.

I thought about wet sleeving as well. But I read, in multiple places, that there are temp issues after. I will be driving this on the road as well and do not want temp issues.
