Just toying with the idea of getting a engine made up with these fitted.
Is there a machine shop in the uk that has fitted the Darton liners in a Volvo 5 cylinder engine ?.
That ran long term without problems.

I believe there are some concerns about cooling

Clever stuff.
Cooling is actually improved due to the design of the individual components.
Needs a real specialist with the very best kit to do the job properly, nothing like a regular liner insert. Quite often used in Porsche engines here in the UK: an experienced specialist near Heathrow does a few every year.
I know of none installed in 5 pot Volvos here in the UK although a couple of Focus ST owners have had this done.
