Default Aftermarket Block?

http://www.dartheads.com/blhonda.htm

Is there a point in buying one of these rather than taking your block and trying to build it up?

Anyone know the price that these things go for?

It never hurts to have a spare motor handy in the case of a meltdown... but I'm sure you know that already.

That is an interesting link, I wonder how much they are as well

good block but the cost is 2500 plus shipping for them and they come with nothing but the block. Also not allowed on any drag racing curcuit.

The price is 2495, talked to Payn already and will be available in about 3 weeks. You will still need to have a GSR or LS or something crank, oil squirters, etc, etc. I dont reaqlly think it is worth it to most people where you can have ur current motor sleeved. Kinda of a waste if you ask me. just my 2 cents

Hmm... Dart.

Time for a HondaSaver Group Buy. I can get decent pricing on Dart products.
