For what purpose? D-series heads are good for flowing nearly 300 horsepower. Trying to get naturally aspirated power out of a D-series is not cost effective.

Re: good head work on d16
Tell you what. Build up the head with the assumption of gaining horsepower like you see them do with the V8s on the Speed Channel.
Do you even think for one hot second that you can run the stock ECU on it? Nope. Now you have to put out cash for a chipped and socketted ECU and a tune. Look to spend at least another $500 and up.
A built head on a stock block is a waste of money. Even if you build the block up you will wind up spending a BOATLOAD of cash and? ..........wait for it........ Still be slow.
