Our Dry sleeve price did go up a little bit.
The 1500.00 included te sleeves, machining and decking the block.
The 2250.00 price includes all that PLUS a finish cylinder home, align hone and.... A new set o ARP main stud kit. We just decided to add all that together because most were doing that anyway.

Default Head bolts

I prefer not to weld on the block except to repair cracked bores. What I do for higher horsepower LS engines is re thread for half inch studs. Note that nearly all brands of blocks I sleeve have four bolts per cylinder holding the heads down from little Hondas to the Dodge Viper. The little imports run in the sixes and one of my Vipers holds the IRS suspension Viper record at 7.10 in the quarter.

I can also dowel the LS main caps to the block to keep them from walking.

Makes sense, I was wondering what was up as well. Thanks for the clarification!

You all are most welcome. Please go to our website and check it out. We have given it a new look.
Also, thanks to all who came out to support us at the IMIS show up in Indianapolis this past weekend. A big shout out to Mark Koehler and the Ohio Boys crew for allowing us to showcase his car in our booth. It was a big hit at the show.
