Who sells sleeved LS1 blocks? Looking to build a 382, 388, or 396 (can you tell I'm in the early stages here?) and need to know who sells LS1 blocks already sleeved & honed, ready to assemble the motor... Any of our fine sponsors do it? 
(EDIT: OK, I found ARE's re-sleeved blocks. Anybody else?)

Re: Who sells sleeved LS1 blocks? Valve God will sell you a new GM factory block ready for a stroker rotating assembly for $600.

SDPC has the C5R block for around $6,000! They also sell 6.0 liter iron blocks which are 85lbs heavier...
Bored and resleeved ls1/ls6 blocks are somewhat pricy --- Our sponsors MTI, Augustino and Lingenfelter, sell these... --------------->
LPE uses a Darton wet sleeve but is still testing and has not shipped any yet; the other two vendors use dry sleeves and claim to have solved the dropped sleeve issues that plauged early dry-bore and re-sleeved blocks...

Re: Who sells sleeved LS1 blocks? I am also interested in a rsleeve on my LPE 383 but would like the wet style Darton sleeve, the cam & heads are good just want to go up in cubic inch.

Re: Who sells sleeved LS1 blocks? I have the LPE 383 package in a 01 Z06 and would love to bring them the car but i think they are trying to sell the package no the upgrade, i have had all the work done already, heads & cam are fine just want to up the cubes nothing more.
