Default should i resleeve or stay stock

i just got a used ls6 block(free) and i was wounding if i should resleeve the block. i have heard a lot of people saying they were having problems and should just go with a ls2. i am planing on running a lot of nitrous though this motor. i am hoping for mid-high 400's RWH all motor and running a 200-300 shot of nitrous. would i be better off just keeping the stock sleevs or resleeveing the motor to a 383+?

the problems come from unqualified people installing the sleeves, not the sleeves themselves. with what your planning too do its gonna come down to proper fueling and tune rather then sleeve integrity. if you want large displacement, and by large i mean 427+ resleeving is the only way to go. and in your case i'd opt for the MID wetsleeve.
