Default re-sleeve block?

-im currently getting started on rebuilding my block " https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=290243 " it's sitting headless and waiting for the go ahead...wanted to know if i should get it sleeved with some dartons or something or are the factory sleeves strong enough to hold up? do they even HAVE dartons for a b17a block???

-im looking to run 20psi on track days and around 12-15psi daily driving...

Darton has sleeves for every B-series motor ( and a lot of others too )
Give them a jingle.

what should i look to spend on some darton sleeve's? where can i find them for a good price?

i won't be doing the work but what should i expect to spend to get them in the block...

also with the dartons in place does that make it a closed deck or is it still an open deck?

A typical pro-kit to make your block solid deck would run about $550 or so.
Install can go another 550 easy. They have east + west coast install centers.
I'd just send it to them in CA and have it done by them.

Fast service
great design
nearly half the price of Darton with equal or better quality.
