Stock sleeves are 86mm, there's no way in hell you can bore out an LSJ block 4mm more without installing some Darton sleeves or something; which if you are doing the Darton sleeves, the block can be picked up with cracked sleeves or something like that, as long as the block itself is good.
Your best bet is to either get an LSJ block, install Darton sleeves and then bore to 90mm, or get a ZZP girdled LE5 block like I've done, it's at 88mm and much stronger than a stock LSJ block.

i run a 90mm bore bates sleeved and custom je pistons block. not a road i suggest for anyone else. theres no way stock sleeves can handle that much meat taken out.
it becomes very diffcult to get the head gasket to seal around the thin sections in between the sleeves.

Okay stOcks sleeves 1.5 millimeters thick. I'm having customs sleeves made about 70$ a sleeve. Custom pistons made. and I'm having the block bored to 93mm. I do this kind of thing on honda engines all day long. The goal is a 2.5l lsj

I run an LE5 block/LSJ head and bolted up the F35 MU3 transmission no problems.
