And when you order headstuds for an b18a1+b16a2 ls vtec you get headstuds for the b16, right?

And is there any markin on Eagle rods to denote the 3/8" rod bolts? Thats measuring the threaded part correct? The head of my bolts are ~3/8" but the bolt itself is only 1/4"

If you have an 82mm bore, do not use an 81mm gasket. You do not want the gasket hanging over the bore.
An OEM gasket can be used on an 81.5mm bore as it is slightly larger than 81mm in diameter.
