Default Wanna have block Sleeved, whos the best??

I am sending my LS block off to be sleeved. Going with .20 over-bore. Wanting to run 19+psi.

Who is the best to sleeve my block?

Benson? Golden Eagle? Darton?

Anyone else I should know about that will take my block and sleeve it for me??

I live in Idaho, and no one in the state mod's Hondas.

Please Help me.

Hey look. Another "bash the block sleever that didn't do your motor" thread.


I can't see how someones internet opinion could persuade you anyway.

My bad. People can say what they want. If there is 100 people saying Benson, then I guess Benson is my choice. Whoopeee.

I have no knowledge outside Honda-Tech on companies that will sleeve motors.

Thanks anyways.

Keep the feedback coming though!

Dont forget to look into ERL sleeves on their website http://erlperformance.com Or you can contact us for more information regarding the type of Darton sleeves they use, their machining practices, or the reason why so many street car/race car owners are turning to ERL for sleeved blocks and their 5 main girdles they offer!
