I don't use a 305 block. As I stated, I use a 307 or 350 block.

All the things I do to my blocks (block true, lifter true, align hone, etc), need to be done to a new Dart block as well. If you have never used one you should note that they don't come finished.

The fact that Dart is not making a "small bore block" means you will need to install sleeves, just like we do in 307 & 350 blocks. The only difference is that we start with, as you put it, a $50 block instead of a $2000 block. The required prep work is the same.
