im currently building my z6 all forges internas but stock sleeves. im planning on boosting 15 to 20 psi so im wondering if a block guard is a good idea and if all the bad facts about them are untrue. help me out!!!!

 

i ran one in my car. d16 turbo. I never ran into any problems that i believe were caused by using it. I had it in two different engines. im about to put it in my next engine build. I have the race eng one tho. it doesnt seem to have as big of holes as some other brands i've seen.

 

If you install a blockguard properly, then you shouldnt have any issues running one. If you havent seen the latest thread about the SOHC hatch that layed down 460hp on stock D series sleeves (the pink full race one), see if you can dig it up. I would just save my $ for sleeves and ditch the blockguard and get it tuned by somebody who really knows what they are doing....

good luck

They are useless and in some cases (mine) can ruin your engine

Just tune it right and you will be fine
