Well morgan they are very good questions and i dont know the answers to all of them..
But what i know is that there are darton flange top sleeves meaning that there is a lip associated with the top of the sleeve which is pressed into the top of the block. This will eliviate the sleeves blowing head gaskets from normal drop in sleeves. Alot of the reputable engine builders use this form of sleeving. And will thus prevent sleeve walk..
The CC and CR is worked out by asg but we are targeting the standard 2.5 displacement using 99.5mm pistons..
The CR will be around 8.5:1..
But your best to speak to asg, or theyll pass you onto the machinest that prepares all their blocks...
