Brian at MA-Motorsports and I had a good conversation at the first of the year on which way to go after I had talked to Mark at Mazworx. I will not post the details but the next step was to do what I did, Sleeve the block. I do have a list of folks who have popped headgaskets with RJM closed deck blocks. Some of them, multiple headgaskets.

By the way, Darton MID Sleeves are not easy to do correctly. Mark told me part of the process and I can say that it is tedious. They have to know what they are doing. Don't let just anyone sleeve your block. If you do go to someone else, if the headgasket blows, don't expect another machine shop to fix it. That motor build turns into a big old paper weight, coffee table, etc. I already know of one instance.

Let's get this straight. That solution was designed by Mike M. Not Mazworx. Mark did what he was asked to do. I doubt he does that again. I don't blame him if he chooses not too. Proper engine builds are not cheap.
If you contact Mazworx for an engine build, expect him to want to build it his way and the complete engine build. This is the only way he can stand behind his product. Last edited by Spooler; 09-10-2020 at 10:13 AM. |

Me and Mike got into it. Like spooler states mazworx didn’t build rjm blocks with mid sleeves, they were La dry sleeves that he didn’t recommend. Mike is such a snake, just like at the very beginning he stated he had no ties with Rjm.

There is always something to learn.
