If I put ITR pistons in my b16.....
Will I need to worry about valve's hitting the pistons? I spun a bearing and while the block is out I'm going to have it tanked and honed and the pistons installed. Do I need to worry about valve clearence? Also should I go with OEM rings or aftermarket? Thanks.

Do not put Itr pistons in your b16. I have a friend who has already made this mistake. The dome on your b16a2 is higher than the dome on the ITR piston. What that means is you would be lowering your compression a small amount. If you are going to do a set of pistons and you want to stay factory then do a set of CTR pistons.
