Default Question for you turbo guys!

My local machine shop has informed me that sleeving a b20 block is bad because the sleeves always tend to sink. This machine shop knows about sleeving engines because he does it all the time. But this has me confused is there something about the b20 block that makes it unsleeveable or is this information false?

he specializes in Darton but said golden eagles are the same.

I need to know because I am really confused about sleeving my b20 block.

The sleeves are Siamese. Try a solid deck conversion.

Darton doesn't recommend sleeving b20's with there sleeves.Golden Eagle has no problem using there sleeves,they have done hundreds of b20s.
