Default Engine Machining Question

Hey,

I am curious on how much can I bore a '99 LS1 engine block out, before I would have to resleeve and is it possible to put a 4.10 stroke in a `99 LS1 Block.

Thank You
Tilly

You can bore them very little. I'm not 100% certain how much, but I think the limit is .005" or .010".
