GSR top end, b18c1 everything except for dist. with aem cam gears for 300. The head doesnt flow as good as a b16a/itr and intake manifold wont work for me so I'll either have to get a skunk2 or jg/edelbrock one. but if everything is in good condition, is this worth it?
Also Do I really need arp headstuds(head studs are $)?
My goal is still 350-375hp but it's nice to not have to boost as much.

I'll buy it for that price if you don't
You don't NEED ARP studs, but I hate doing work twice. If you think you'll need them one day, no time like the present.

Ray, if you plan on going TURBO, then get the B16 head, if you want all motor u might as well just jump on the GS-R, but really either would work, i prefer the b16 head
who told u the b16 head was better? Ray, if you plan on going TURBO, then get the B16 head, if you want all motor u might as well just jump on the GS-R, but really either would work, i prefer the b16 head
Would he have to deshroud the chambers to accomidate the 84mm bore on the B20 block too like what may of you did when you bored your B18C blocks to 84mm? Just curious, I'm a wuss and sticking to only 81.5mm
