Default Block Sleeving ?'s

Who do you recomend to sleeve a block. And what is a good sleeve to go with. Looking to boost my LS. But I may buy a B16 block or GSR block to build so i don't have any down time. But where do you recommend having the sleeves installed and where should i get them. thanks

Abacus Racing can build it and Darton sleeves are good.

Yes, we can sleeve your block. If you are going to boost, i highly reccomend the darton setup. i am not sure of the price offhand, its around 1200 though. call the shop up on Monday 757-363-8878. Chuck can give you a price

Inline pro they use AEBS sleeves, my block turned out awesome but the sleeves are kinda pricey!

I second the HT special on Golden Eagle blocks. $900 shipped, no core charge!!

Abacus did my first block almost 2 years ago, ended up "blowing" it up (acording to Chuck, told me some crazy story) and took another 2 months go get it back. At the time, they charged me $1,500.

My second block went to Z10 for AEBS sleeves. Another company you should look into is ERL. Their new superdecks are amazing and they have had 0 failures.
