has anyone in here done it or had it done everyone i know has either told me they used blockgaurds and just left them. I know its expensive but i never see or heard or anyone doing it. If anyone has had it done what does itcost to have them bored out honed and matched to the pistons.

 

800-1000 dollars for the labor/parts. Golden eagle is the cheapest. Pretty much indestrutible with a good tune and proper internals

 

cause why sleeve a d series, when the you can sleeve a b for the same price

 

JG Engine Dynamics will do it for $600 including the sleeves. I'm not sure of the quality of their work though so you may want to askaround.

 

JG=Just Garbage :P

 

jg is actually a very good company but they have done some shady ---- in there past. Im not sure on that cost though sounds too cheap. ONly reason to do a sleeved d is for the whole Im different thing. Get alot more attention with an 11 sec sohc than a b18

 

I've heard good and bad things about them. The price I mentioned doesn't include boring and honing which is another $150.

I found another place for $900 that included boring/honing...I think it was exospeed but can't remember.

 

i've heard of numerous people having problems with sleeves sinking with jg's block work. their head work may be ok, but i would never trust them with a block. exospeed has done a few shady things as well and has many unsatisfied customers. the only places i would send a block would rlz, erl, or directly to golden eagle. it may cost a little extra, but paying 200-300 more is better than throwing 600 out the window completely :P

 

Lots of the sinking sleeves was from almost all companies a couple years back. 2 of my buddies had rs ones drop and a golden eagle block but I think most companies finally have it down

 

Block fill that ---- this is hmt *****
