How much did all the machine work cost on the head?

If you're going to go all motor get a bigger engine. Do an ITR engine or swap in an h22 with an adapter plate to your short geared em1 tranny.

You aren't very detailed. I'm not sure by your post if you've done anything yet, are planning to, or any real details.

an all motor b16 would be a waste imo. either go poorman's r, or gsr with b16 tranny for a small tq pickup and good power band. anything other than i/h/e on a b16 is going to need boost/spray. this is my opinion now, but anything over a 160-180whp b16 is going to be a money pit where you arent reaping the benefits.
