b18c siezed, is head still good?
I have the oppurtunity to buy a gsr head off this kid's siezed gsr at a very attractive price. I was just wondering if the head could still be good. The engine siezed in third gear. The thing I am most concerned about is the camshaft bearings and if they are worn out of spec. Drop a line tell me what you think? thanks

Somebody correct me if I am wrong, but I thought the cams rode on the head....no bearings for the cams. At least, my friend's b16 did. ???

yeah oil starvation, but I was hoping that the crank welded to the mains before any real damage could occur to the head. I'll rip it off and post back w specs and some pics.

why not pull the head off before buying it?
