I might be sending my extra block to Mazworx to have it Darton sleeves, then swap over all my engine components. Based on what I've seen in this thread so far, it seems that simple sleeves won't fix the HG issues.

There is more to it than just the Darton MID sleeves. You will need to get a complete motor built to get his knowledge.
He is holding some information very close. He is smarter than the average bear, eh booboo.

Maybe he is going for best 370Z gas mileage... a high hp engine build and having to keep a light throttle should work out pretty well for him

Trying to figure out few things. When the head gasket(s) let go. What was the conditions for everyone who had this happened? High boost, high in the rev range, hard on the gas, high traction, boost spike, just cruising around, etc?

Think Spooler hit on something a few pages back with the billet block. Talked about the 350 block breaking during launch, and the cure was the billet block. So the block was distorting enough to break. The 370 block is stronger, but it will still distort. Not enough to break, but cause other problems. When you combine the things I listed above. You'll have the head gasket issue. The block is distorting enough to release the clamping pressure off the gasket. The distortion could be the cylinders walking, the outer part of the block, the galley area. If the area that is distorting is around a few head studs. A few will pull tighter, and others will loosen up. Also need to know which head gasket, left or right side. Which cylinder? The inside or outside of the gasket? If we get this info. Maybe we can map out which area is being distorted the most. The other thing is. Is the head being distorted? Is it doing it's own thing, separate from the block, or with the block?

First, I would like to say thanks for the plethora of information in this thread. Truly appreciated. VQ35HR ('08) here with BP kit just installed on stock block so planning my engine build next and am looking to possibly go VQ37 bottom end. What bolt/gasket setup was this running?

My car? Not sure what they put in it. I would have to take it apart to see.

The VQ35DE block was yielding between the Head studs and Main studs. If you didn't catch it in the videos the tell tell sign was the main caps would just fall out during disassembly. The car took 1200hp before they had an issue launching the car at the drag strip. We may be going to a billet block down the road. We shall see. Right at this moment, I am pissed off to the point I might let the car sit for a while. I don't want to spend every dollar I have trying to get it back together only to have other people copy what I have done and it cost them nothing. F that.
