Reminds me of the late '70s when we installed this type of sleeve in the Vega blocks, when the coolant sides were badly corroded. The std. sleeve was a pre-finished flanged sleeve. All manual machining in those days.
Joyful to watch..... really like it to see the know how to fix it to be a better one and Elcheapo as well.
Really cool machining. Subbed
Thanks!
Congrats, you earned subscriber #400 here! :)
Thanks for subbing!
Can you do this on a gen 5 motor?
Hallo nice job and video thanks
what is the diameter off the bar?
what is the height off the center off the bar to machine table?
greetings
joris
11" off of the table. 2" diameter bar
Can you do the same with cast iron block ?like the1990 taurus sho 3.0 block?
No cast iron wouldn't be cost effective as it would add a ton of time!
Very good video!
Do you have one or are you going to make one machining for dry sleeves?
What is the cost for a dry sleeve setup?
Where are you located?
Thank you! I haven't done a dry sleeve video yet but I am planning on it. The dry sleeve runs about $2500 with the sleeves and using your block (we can also provide the block). We are in Fort Walton Beach, FL.
@@wolverineengines6156 I'm looking for an LS7 block for my 09 z06,
My engine is still good,but looking for a back up.
Its a daily but I want to autocross it once to three times a month.
What would the cost be for the dry vs wet if I provided the block.
@@philortega6516 Right now we are not taking in new job as we are so far behind. Please check back with us in a few months!
Why 5.3 block in particular? And can all 5.3 block be dry sleeved?
5.3L is the cheapest. Any aluminum LS block can be done.
Question sir, does Darton dry sleeve require a .002 above deck protrusion or it should be milled true to the deck?
Flush for 90 percent of applications. Much easier to get right. I have left them up .002" for high boost applications but it's hard to keep everything even and parallel.
@@wolverineengines6156 Roger that. Thanks
How much z is in the machine? Did you have risers put in? Im trying to put my fadal online to do this.
32" Spindle nose to table.
@wolverineengines6156 Thanks for the reply. I have 28 in the z right now. I am looking to make some risers for my z-colum but didn't know the best total z heigth to have.
Can you use ls3 block
Yes it can be done with the LS3.
Same goes for ls6 block correct?
The ls1 / ls6 blocks are the same process but are not prefered due to a shorter sleeve that needs to be used.
Who is running one ? Are you still going to have coolantin the block and heads
Yes full coolant.
sorry forgot
the lenght off the bar?
32" long
Anyway to contact you guys about doing some machine work?
Thanks for your interest. We are currently closed till the 1st of the year, moving to a new facility.
