The ITR head is extremely similar to the B16 head (same casting). What information in particular are you looking for?

I personaly wouldn't waste money on an ITR head if you already have a B16 head. As was stated before the differences are dual intake valve spings and MINOR hand polishing of the runners. For the price, you could upgrade the valve train of your PR3 head you already have and make more power than the mild gains you will get by spending a fortune on an ITR PR3 head.

By buying the one off of a C5 motor, you are paying for the name when you already have the same cast head.

Man there is NO best B head honestly. The PR3 is the casting, B16a, b, and B18C5 are all PR3 heads. The -2,-3, and so on are just series or something of that nature, I can't remember off the top of my head but you can search and find out if it bugs you that bad.

It honestly sounds to me like you are just itching to either A spend a crap load of money or B just be able to say "I have an ITR/CTR head on my ride". If that is what you are doing, then just go for it. Otherwise, do like I stated before and spend the money on springs, retainers and a set of cams for your current PR3 head and outflow both of them. The hand polishing may be worth 5 more CFM (whoopie) and the dual intake valve springs are taken care of by an aftermarket set of springs and retainers. Last but not least, ITR/CTR cams are kick *** but there are better out there and you have the option of doing that if you just build your current head WHICH FOR THE LAST TIME IS A CTR/ITR CAST HEAD!!!!!!

Get it now? It would be a waste spent for a name. If you still want to, go for it.

Thanks man, the thing is that the trany which has ATS 3-4-5th gears, the Intake man + TB and distributor and a p61 ecu come, AEm feul rail+ pressurre regulaor, Toda Flywheel a a stage 3 clutch come with the deal, for 6000$ canadian I have all this, an a b16a block bored + 0.010", blanced crank and a CTR n1 pulley + dyno tuning by remaping the ecu with Chrome data. In Canada a b18c5 swap is 4500-5000$ and to get a b16a head do the work to it and buy the I.M. + trany is most likely in the same ball park!

It's no money that's I'm concerned about, it's performance gains!

Thanks for the imput

Damn bro, you just confused the **** out of me with that last post lol. So you already have the

"he trany which has ATS 3-4-5th gears, the Intake man + TB and distributor and a p61 ecu come, AEm feul rail+ pressurre regulaor, Toda Flywheel a a stage 3 clutch come with the deal, for 6000$ canadian I have all this, an a b16a block bored + 0.010", blanced crank and a CTR n1 pulley + dyno tuning by remaping the ecu with Chrome data"

And you are just looking for a head?

If so, then you may still be cheaper going to aftermarket way. Thing I am still wondering is what you have now and what you are trying to accomplish in the end.

with 6k you can build a motor that puts out 200whp+. just start from scratch. get a stock head and send it out to get it ported, get valvetrain, some nice cams, and get the block built. i spent around 4500 on my LS VTEC and i put down 217whp and 139tq
