I have a RS Machine block. Looks very good, would look better if it was in my car though.

Got the block and assembly done by them and it's holding up just fine. Good quality and pretty strong so far.

RS Machine does great stuff! It sucks that there sint that much praise about RS. Everyone would be surprised HOW many teams actually go through RS.

Its like the news.. good stuff hardly gets talked about and given the recognition.. but when bad news happens, its right there in the front page of newspapers and top news on TV.
So to RS...

ALL of our Exospeed race blocks go through RS Machine for all machining needs.

I use RS sleeves all the time. They are on this board regularly but rarely post. Erick Aguilar and Bisi use them as well as many others. They are not a secret, it's just that they have very few problems.

You can get RS sleeving done through http://www.exospeed.com. They are a good source for RS sleeving and machine work. They both work closely together. Ask for Wil. Wil is awesome on the customer service/price tip, thats for damn sure.

Funny, this is where Im sending my block, I should have posted this, cause I heard about them from Art and Rooney ... Too bad I have to ship it from NY to Cali, but in my eyes you get what you pay for.

RS =

About $900 from Exospeed's site i belive, well they are $900 on portflow's site. Spens the extra money to get it done right.
