Default Dart blocks>>anyone using one yet? Opionions? what have you heard?

I am looking into a dart B18 block. Does anyone have any experiences that they could share? This will be for a boosted vtec setup.

Guys, for those who dont know. DART is a bad *** company. They make nice blocks for small block chevys and other doemestics. If i had the money Id have one in my camaro, truck and crx. But they are spendy and useless unless your racing and get some money out of it
