I have had nothing but bad experience with dry sleeved blocks. After few hundred miles later coolant starts to leak in cylinder, cooling system gets pressurized, ect. I prefer the wet sleeved, way better than dry sleeved. It's little more but it's worth all the trouble from dry sleeved blocks. I am not going to mention any names, have used more than one different machine for dry sleeved and ended up with bad disappointing results where blocks had to been swapped out.

That's just my experience, good luck with your build.
