Default WHAT???? Aftermarket Vtec cylinder heads

I was poking around ebay and ran into these aftermarket B16 cylinder heads. I am wondering if anybody actually use these.

Ebay item number:310122689014

I'm not sure if it is up-to-par in the quality department...but why pay that much anyways when it is missing stuff? Not even camshafts...

missing stuff is an understatment.....

cams
valves
valve springs and washers
retainers
rocker assemblies
rocker shafts
lost motion assemblies
intake and exhaust manifold studs
cam cap plates

you can buy a good used head in that price range area anyway

deal or dud?.............dud!

Don't be alarmed...Endyn is almost ready to release their "DHPS / ENDYN B SERIES HEAD."

Which is of course, a brand new cast b-series head per oem honda spec's with Endyn's bad-*** basica work...all for under $1k.

Check it out here:

Though, i'm not sure who's responsible for the one pictured above...8)

i dont think i'd trust any NEW engine parts off EBAY besides maybe cams and valvetrain parts. You never know who made it and what the quality is.
