Default Another alternative to AEBS sleeves...Darton Sleeve Kit

Apparently Darton will be releasing a sleeve kit soon!

Anyone know what the availability will be like? They don't mention a release date.

Sounds sweet but how much HP would you be running in order to need a sleved block?

bluefish is pumping huge HP numbers on the stock sleves.

I would also like to know what HP numbers would need to be pushed to need sleeves. I am aiming at putting a Vortech or HKS Supercharger System in my Z and leaving it at pretty much stock boost then throwing in rods and pistons.

AFAIK bluefish has a stock crankshaft and stock intake manifold, other than that...it is all aftermarket. AFA hp, I really don't know, I believe I saw that it is around 800hp or so somewhere.

I don’t think you need a certain amount of power to run sleeves. The sleeves just reinforce the block by having stronger cylinder walls. The sleeves are the new cylinders. Therefore the block can handle more stress----more boost/nitrous-------more HP.
