Default Darton Sleeve Kit

http://www.darton-international.com/pr_vq35.htm

Apparently Darton will be releasing a sleeve kit soon!

Sorry if it's a repost, I don't recall seeing this before though. Either way, when is it going to be released?

Using these sleeves, is there anything special you need to do to them. I heard someone talking about how some sleeves sink or was that just about AEBS. Why does AEBS not sell there's where you can buy them and install them yourself? And why does AEBS cost so much more then Darton?

The sleeves would help extreme N/A motors and for F/I motors that want to boost more.

The sleeves will sink if the installer doesn't install them properly. AEBS sells there's, you buy from them and I believe can get them installed anywhere. I'm not sure why AEBS is more, both of them make the block closed deck.
