Alright. So my plans are to change out my stock cams out of my B16A2 for a CTR/ITR combo. Just something mild. Well my plan was to buy an entire ITR valvetrain minus exhaust valves since they are the same. This is what I am wandering. I still want to purchase the intake valves and the springs and retainers for the intake side, but can I just move the valvetrain from the intake side now to the exhaust side? If so then I will just need to buy 8 inner springs, 8 outter springs and 8 retainers for the intake side, plus the intake valves and then just move my stock Si intake valvetrain to the exhaust side? I hope I'm not confusing anyone. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

P.S. - Or am I just completley wrong and the intake and exhaust valvetrain are the same?

^, ^ and away

Doctor CorteZ

move intake to the exhaust
buy ITR intake springs
install cams

OR if your not raising your redline just put the cams in , B16 valvetrain is fine to 8900 or so

Doctor CorteZ

you forgot to get the CTR pistons ............. or at least a thinner headgasket

Mr Hammond

CTR Pistons w/ pins & wrings....check
Thinner head gasket..... undecided
Probably just go with a new stocker.

Doctor CorteZ

CTR pistons and rings + stock headgasket = GOod

Mr Hammond

So is everyone agreed the B16 valvetrain with hold the CTR cams to 8400 rev limiter?

Doctor CorteZ

yep.
