havent got pictures of the block the machine work on the engine is absolute top notch he told me that it should be fine up to 900 to 1000 horse power at the crank so hopefully it will be ok

thats on old dry sleeves. mid darton sleeves dont drop. most people get bad experiences becasue they take it to a shp that dosnt know what they are doing. its like telling a mechanic to sit behind a desk all day.
