I noticed in my new "HONDA TUNING" that there is an advertisment for "Barton Sleeves" and also they are featured in the new pars section of the magizine. I have heard of these sleeves before, but do not know the quality of them. Does anyone have experience with these sleeves? And do they have sleeves for my B18B1? Also, it says that you can buy an instalation kit for them? Does that mean you can instal them your self? Any info would be nice.

 

are u there they are barton? or was is darton?

 

I think he meant Darton, I never heard of Barton (unless they are new)

 

They are Darton, for some reason I was thinking "Barton," I don't know why though? Still though? does anyone know anything about these sleeves??????

 

Good sleeves, we use them in our built engines. Whatcha wanna know?

 

I want to know if they make them for my B18B, how much boost will they handle, and the advertisment say you can buy an istalation for them? does that mean you can put them in your self or do you have to have a machine shop or somthin do it? I tried looking on their web sit ( http://www.dartonsleeves.com ) but there was no info on the import engines, just trucks and tractors!!!!

 

Yes, they're made for the B18B, you cannot install them yourself unless you have a full machine shop. We charge $750 for the sleeve installation including the sleeves.

 

What is the biggest sleeve you can put in a B16?

I want to put these sleeves w/ an 84mm bore? I know I have seen somewhere that the b16 can hold a 84mm sleeve ..is that correct?

Any problems w/ them sinking? I've heard some sleeves sink after running a while and will cause MAJOR problems!

i think all the B series sleeve are the same except the B20. if u want to bore out to 84 i would go with golden ealge sleeves.
