Is there anyone around here, at least in the northeast that can put aftermarket sleeves into a block?
That's all I need to know. Someone help me.

Something like that. ;)
As for Impo, no thanks guys. I'm not a big fan of them and their insane prices. I don't know how they are now, but from past experiences.....

well if you're sleeving a honda, there are only a select few sleeving companies I trust
Benson (contact Earl from honda-tech) - about $950 bucks
ERL (contact First State Motorsports) - about $1500 bucks ( i think)
you can't go wrong with either- benson is an open deck design, while ERL uses a pressed fitted "blockguard" type structure to add rigidity to the top of the sleeves, but please don't compare their sleeving with a blockguard.

I've talked to a Earl a few times on H-T. I'll have to PM him and see how quickly he can get it done. Now, between the two, the prices should end up similar because of the shipping to Earl down in TX or wherever he is.
I'll call fsmoto today.

Yeah, the "852 whp" S2000. It's a myth. Even Earl is skeptical about it.
Looks like it will most likely be going to Earl at the moment. I talked to him on the phone for about a half hour today.

LSHatch--Before you spend the money, spend a half hour on the phone with us. You should definitely give ERL consideration, we can offer you things Benson simply cannot. Wanna really make serious power? How about an offset dry sleeve and a 92mm bore? ERL has some serious f,k, and b series possibilities, and we can work with you depending on the power level you are trying to reach. We have done several S2k's and have core shortblocks in stock, so a little downtime can be avoided. We have met before actually, I used to handle a few cars down in the city with one of my integras and remeber meeting you a couple times. Give us a call and check out the shop one of these days, we have sleeved B blocks just hanging out.

Josh,
We've met before?? I don't really remember meeting you, but if you can refresh my memory, that would be good.
The problem for me is, I move from the east coast Sept 1. I'm gone. I can't have the car stuck here while I'm in Vegas. That's what my biggest problem is.
I'll give you a call tomorrow probably and we can talk.
