Will these work out ok? I'm wondering if there is going to be valve relief issues because of the different heads... any other ideas/problems?

Thanks

not sure if its going to hit or not, but its going to drop your c5 motor to about 9.2:1

You will be fine as long as bore is the same as other block. Try to keep consistent piston to wall clearance.

If they make 9.5 in a straight ls motor, it will be approx 9.7 or so in a b18c5. With the stroke of the b18c5, compression is decreased, However, with the smaller CC of the b18c5 head, the compression will increase. Overall, it will be around 9.7 copmression in a full b18c5 longblock.

Thats what I calculated it too... 9.6-9.7 ... thanks guys, its getting put together next weekend...

anyone know of a place to get a type r oil pump and HG from for a good price?

Your valves may be larger than the valve pockets, but even so, it shouldn't interfere unless you use some wacky cam sprocket settings.
