Default Lq9. Sleeve just one cyl?

My lq9 may have to go bigger than I thought on one hole. But I've already got the pistons. So what if I have home put a sleeve in the one hole. Will it hold up to good power? He said he could do it but he wasn't sure if it would take big power. 1000-1200fwhp. What do you guys think?

If it's done right it shouldn't be an issue. Use a good sleeve.

A good steel sleeve is stronger then the factory cylinder.

Thanks guys. Hopefully it will be good to go but if not this will be what I do.

The darton sleeves are the pricing ones aren't they? I'll find out what they use when he calls me this week.
