Default Dart LS Next with Darton MID sleeves

I just finished installing Darton MID sleeves in two new Dart aluminum LS Next blocks. I said I would return and post photos of the first block.

The sleeves are semi finished at 4.100" for 4.125" bore. Max. bore size is 4.200". Dart with deck, bore and hone these when they get them back.

I'll be working on developing an MID kit for the tall deck version shortly.
