Default Golden Eagle block guard
My friend is about to drop this in his b18b. Is anyone using this block guard and if so any problems.

im preety sure you should have a machine shop install it,weld it on or something,but the thing with this is at that point wouldnt it make more sense just to have your blocked sleeved?i dont know i think me and my friend are just going to hammer it in with a rubber mallet and hope for the best

no welding involved

yes, it's a machined fit. we had to use the dremel in a few spots to make mine clear exactly, but it was just hammered in w/ a rubber mallet.

from what i know, your suppose to weld it in first, then bore and hone the block to make it fit as perfect as you can without distorting the shape.

I know race engineering guards are simply mallet in, and go. But i know some are suppose to be welded in.
