Would you Sleeve a Motor if you plan to Daily Drive it?

Hey guys would like to hear some feedback from guys with Sleeved blocks that drive on the street? hows the cooling? i hear stories about they dont stay cool like OEM sleeves etc.. wanted to know if there was any truth to it? I plan to have a built bottom end with a EFR kit. run low boost 550 on pump daily driven. and then a tune on q16 and e85 but dont plan to daily drive it around on e85 at 27psi. i know ill need a fuel system to support that kind of setup. i just want to hear what people think about daily driving a car with say Darton Sleeves.

Darton sleeves are a wet design and one of the best on the market.. I wouldn't worry about cooling. If they can be used for 1000+hp builds, they'll be fine for street driving
