Default How much can you bore a LS1 out?

With darton sleeves how much can you bore the LS1 out? I thought I saw that you could achieve as much as 395cubes just from boring it out. which would be like 4.165 I think, but darton sleeves are sold in 4.125 size. How much would it cost to get this done? Also I know RED in southern california is the only shop people trust around here, but I am in New England and I was wondering if anyone knew a good shop on the east coast.

With a bored out block and a stroker kit where would that put you cubic inch wise?

wet sleeves cost a shitload, and having them installed is another shitload ontop of that.

depends on what you want to get.

thats pretty much all I needed to know. I might as well just get forged pistons and rods, and if I want more power shoot more nitrous.

I have heard of people being able to run 12:1 compression and run Nitrous on pump gass. Anyone know if this is true?
