    If I am correct Darton (SP?) makes them .Was told KB still has them. I have read they are hard to get in touch with. They have cut back on staff but still open.

    KB sleeve

    Not yet, LA Sleeve & Darton don't have & Ken Black at KB is looking. Why, do you have a lead? Times a running out! Thanks, "Lurch". 6209260299 is the cell#

    We ran into the same kind of problem well kind of. We needed sleeves to fit a block that we welded up and bored to a odd size. We bought sleeves from Darton that were for some Ford motor and turned the od and head to fit our block. Made a arbor for our lathe and it worked out good. If you are in a bind start thinking out of the box something will come up.

    Ken took care of me recently on some sleeves as well. Great guy, excellent customer service. Darton was out of stock until Oct on what I needed - Ken made it happen. I hope he does well keeping the Keith Black legacy alive.
