Great design, no cooling problems, Good Price, Have never heard them fail, allows you to go big bore, it's almost as good as it gets.

Someone needs to contact the honda engineer to make their sleeves GEM style!

yeah the darton closed deck looks good as well but i dont think it would let the coolant flow as well as golden eagle. but you could prolly drill the holes out a little more

Yes, and you didn't mention that Darton sleeves are close to double the price of GE after installation!

What kinda $$ are we talking about w/ Golden Eagle? I assume you just tear it down and send in, and they have a pretty decent turn around?

u should check if the block can be re sleeved cause if the crack is all the way down, then it cant be resleeved. They say it's a 1 week turn around but mine took 3 weeks from shipped out to back to my door. Real hi-quality. Has any gem sleeve failed so far???

Got an email back from them within like 30mins!! Here's the prices they said, seems pretty good deal. I'll just need a set of rods and have somebody help me throw it together, and it'll be like under 2K!!!! You could run insane amounts of boost with this setup and a good standalone system.

To get your block sleeved will run you $750.00 . This includes
putting our "Godzilla" sleeves into your block, cleaning and decking -
Two Options:
1. step deck which is usually for block that do not have enough room for

an o-ring due to large bores
2. O-ring - which we like to put on all motors if possible. Works great
on turbo or NOS cars.

Remember, we use all CNC equipment to do the sleeving portion of the
operation so no-one can touch us when it comes to quality,
craftsmanship, tolerances and turn-around. NO-ONE!!

We can bore and hone your block but this process is an additional
$125.00, adds 5 - 7 days to the turn around time and we need the pistons
in order
to get the process done. I can get you ARIAS pistons for $515.00 . Just
tell me
if you are Turbo or all-motor and what your compression prefferences
are? If you by the combo block sleeve, pistons and bore & hone then I
can knock your
total for the job to $1316.00.( a savings of $109 ) Then all you need is
rods and
someone to assemble your motor and your off with alot more reliable
power than you had!!!

We work on an incentive type buyin here at Golden Eagle. The more
you buy, the less expensive it gets for you. If you are interested in
more info,

Bore for $125 and they need your pistons??????

They know WTF they are doing!

No shop can corretly bore ANY engine without having replacement slugs. Most will even number each piston top with what hole they go into.
