Default Darton or GE for sleeving?

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=311731

I read that post, however, I see that a lot of people are going with GE although some people said that its cheaper to replace/fix a broken darton sleeve as oppose to GE.

Also, what is the price for this from BOTH companies?

Thanks

And as many say, you wont need to replace a GE sleeve.

I got my Darton sleeves for 400 shipped from Benson's. You cant go wrong with either company though, golden eagle is high quality craftsmanship as well.

If you go with darton sleeves they are like 5-600 w/o installation. Most places that i have called for install charge 4-500 for the sleeves and about 100-150 for boring them out. I think that the price for GE is for the sleeves and installation, but not for boring. Not sure though, so someone please correct me if i'm wrong.
