darton sleeves for $600just for the sleeves, i spent another 1k$ to have thme CNC'ed in .
GE is prob the cheapest. Actually call Earl, The Bensons he has done are actually extremely well priced for what you get.

Tha Dartons may be $600 but I don't think that includes the install. I went with GE and my block looks incredible. You really can't go wrong with any sleeve. Just make sure whoever does the install knows their ****.

Go to the sponser marketplace section of the forum. They have some good prices on sleeving. Benson, GE, and RS machine are pretty close to the same price.

I would go to bensons... there is a post in here that shows why they are the best... plus with the price and turn around they are offering... who wouldnt go to them plus earl on this site has all the info you need... have heard alot of good things about ge, but my friend waited 2 months for his block to come back instead of the 2 week turn around he was told... not bashing just telling the facts...
just my $.02

I suppose the thing you should think about is that benson is the only guy that works on the blocks.... He has people(that are good as hell) doing other work on the blocks... but he goes over every block and pretty much does them all by himself...... quality

I think ITR206 plans on competing with his car, im not sure Darton blocks are legal in all sanctions....

Go with RS or Benson, you can't beat some of the deals in teh sponsor forum..

I have a B16 block that was sleeved by Bensons that I am trying to sell. It is brand new still in the crate it was shipped in. It has 84mm sleeves, decked, and 0-ringed. I am asking $900.00 for it. Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks,

Jeremy

Dart blocks are not NHRA legal . plus look at the design , i dont trust it with cooling for a street car. My Dartons were sweet. Deff a step above the other sleeves out there IMO . Next up is Benson , then RS, then id say GE. I have GE now , but only becuase i got a good deal on the block .
