We still worry about this one. What's your projected power and torque output? Turbo choice?

In that case, properly put together, I wouldn't have the slightest hesitation in recommending that you stick with the stock 2.5 block. We have run these over 600 bhp no bother at all.
Maybe sleeve if you have no choice, but I hold the view that you may be swopping one worry for another one.
