Darton was making kits for the Gen 3 hemi, not sure if they still make them or not. I just thought I'd post this since it's basically the same operations for any of their M.I.D. sleeve kits. It's amazing how much strength these add to the block. 7829689-HONDAF20CPREPPEDFORDARTONSLEEVES.JPG (107 downloads) Last edited by Performance Only; 08/27/13 06:19 PM. machine shop owner and engine builder

Not enough block to increase the bore spacing that far. We can get plenty bigger with Darton sleeves than the way they come from the factory, but not that big. Heck, It's only money. machine shop owner and engine builder
