sorry for the quality. i think it's alright, but does anyone know why it's different from this:

the block you have is from a H22a1 4th gen block(closed deck)

the ones from the links are open deck 5th gen h22a4

 

oh. thanks. it doesn't look as cool though don't you think?

 

word. are those just straight sleeves with no flange? boost or n/a?

 

yeah. it looks pretty thin but it's n/a so i'm not going to worry so much.

 

They look more like liners to me, right Shawn?

yeah they look exactly like what I have.

 

liners seem to fit the description, but what are liners and what are they use for?

 

kind of like this?

yeah, you're a step ahead of that though. those look pretty thin compared to yours.

 

Come on guys, the block he has is a h22 closed deck motor. They come closed deck and we leave them that way when we put the sleeves in them. The other 2 blocks posted are B series motors with Benson sleeves. They come open deck and get left that way. If you have an open deck h22 block, it comes back with sleeves that look like the open deck B series...but that is why they look different.

As for being a liner, that is a term used for sleeve. The process above done was the entire stock sleeve was taken out and a brand new sleeve is put in. Every sleeve is a liner, although the term usually get's used when only part of the stock sleeve gets taken out and a new iron sleeve gets put in...IE it now would have 2 iron sleeves. Not in the case with a Benson block, it is a completely brand new sleeve...reason you can take it out to 89mm, even turbo if need be and it would run great!

 

I think they get reffered to as liners simply because they aren't flanged, more like the "repair" type sleeve a local machine shop would do only thicker. my mistake if they are in fact flanged though.

Every one of Benson's sleeves have a flange including this block. It is not a large flange, but there is one. This is the same way Benson sleeved Stephan Papadakis H22 engines when he was drag racing

I have a benson H22A4 that Earl built for me, and I know that things gonna hold as much power as I can throw at it. Laskey Racing is the only shop I would let touch my engines. Mike
