get me a a qoute to 48386. ill gladly pay shipping.

yes doc i abuse my machinist. but weve been trying to put together a low budget crate motor program for the older 3rd gen accords for about a yr. weve got it so well reasearched that we can build a copy of my 350hp engine for about $2000 with good rods pistons and valvtrian.

ill talk to him about the sleeving price. ill see if darton got back to us today on the cost of the sleeve. if so then ill be able to get the numbers up tommorow.

that is with a sleeve price of usually appx $500 (for the MID sleeves, the only ones you should do unless you're an idiot) plus $500-$700 in labor. i know i can get it done locally, and well, for appx $1000

who should i check with for shipping i mean it weights like 200ish right u know of a good frieght company. might be cheaper to call around ur local junkyards and ask if they have any junk blocks because shipping i probably going to be 50-100 if not more? Iam in florida

Just the block is going to weigh less than 100lbs.

what are mid sleeves. ? a brand. ? yeah id gladly pay $50 to ship a block and head. break that stuff down though to ship it. it shouldnt eigh more then 50lbs as bare head and block.

and $500 for sleeves is insane what are they made from billet iron ? nodular moly impregnated iron is about the best you can buy and those arent even remotely that pricey.
