That is the question. Nobility has no purpose here so we needn't opine on that.
Rob had issues with his as I recall (after 50 miles of driving), but it does seem to be a somewhat routine thing for the swedes.
With sleeves, correct me if I'm wrong, you can't go larger than the cylinder walls already allow for. I've been rocking 96.5mm slugs, but depending on damage and review can get whatever. Hear also the swedes seem to prefer whole skirt pistons rather than the partial skirt ones I've currently got.
the block split on the gold car, and while I think it was possibly more of a failed component type of issue, my cursory reading on the subject indicates that I'm up around the level where they actually can and do crack. I'd rather not put it all back together only to have to do this all again.
my block was staked.
