dont have the conversion done in a shitbox place. do it right the first time. i have heard about valve relief, use vtec pistons, because ls pistons are rumored to hit the head and valves. do not use b16a(1st gen) valvetrain parts, theyre too old.

Worked for me. Just make sure tge oil line to the VTEC solenoid is atleast -4 AN. We tried -3 (unknowingly) and VTEC would not come on till 6000. I have not taken the head off the look for valve clearance, but I drove it 1200 miles from Los Angeles to Seattle with no problems.
