I think 87mm is a bit much for any daily driven B series. I'd go for 86mm.

With 85 or 86mm you could theoretically retain room to bore .5-1mm later if something evil happens to your cylinder walls too.

But unfor. Dart and any other non oem blocks will be banned starting in the 2004 season (drag). So if you plan on competing your screwed.

Also why not just keep the bare honda block and put Darton (or any other sim. brand) sleeves with the 86mm bore.

WHY are they banning NON OEM Blocks? This doesn't make any sense.
After all these block assemblies aren't cheap!!!

Jesus, First prayer in schools, and now Dart Blocks from Drag racing???
We are ever evolving into a damn Facist or Socialist government. The end is nearer than we actually think. I hate the people of America who have screwed it up for the rest of us. Selfish bastards.

I know it sucks, but It's probably a good thing. If dart blocks were legal, just think of what else would have to be legal too. It's probably just good in the long run. It sure as hell won't help Dart's sales though...

That really sucks because there will be so many good cars sidelined? All that work just to hear this. Good thing I never actually went through with getting Dart. Still it sucks for everyone else...
