ive been offered a b16 head for my ls/v build for cheap. claims to have a "streetport" and the guy said that his rod bolts stretched on #3 and he got minor piston to head contact, but he contacted portflow, alaniz and they said that it was very minor and could just be cleaned up in a valve job...

so opinions?? (see pics below)
ported or no?


i honestly dont see any damage...

 

streetport that would make me think twice about what the hell they tried to do to it

it looks ok to me

 

well all work was done by portflow...i know that for a fact...

 

well, very minor porting if any at all. tough to tell by the pics. how much for the head? i think that should be the deciding factor.

 

250 with itr outer/portlow inner valve springs, the port (said its similar to a basica itr port), plus vtec solenoid and valve cover.

sound good?

 

So, no cams or cam caps and bolts?

 

In the second picture on the lower left you can see a little scarring on the valve.

 

looks like you have a milled head, thats it.

 

everything is included but cams basically.

 

i'll do it

 

Itr factory style port job, you can see it in the bowls.

Looks like some minor damage on the intake valve and exhaust valve on the left side. Nothing a good headshop cant fix anyways.

 

any other input on the damage? other than the small nick it looks like on the lower left valve?

its getting new valves anyway....
