Default need some help here d15b

first i am having a d15b put in my car. But now i need some help. who makes pistons and who does head work to a d15b and what kind of head work do you recomend? i heard that if you have a little head work i could beat a b16a. But would really like some input and some tech here thanks.

Ask around town about a head shop. You should know better than we would. And there's a lot of factors that go into saying a d15b with head work could beat a b16. Are you boosting or just high compression?

And what do you plan on doing when your buddy mods his motor? You're always gonna be losing because you're starting with a crappier platform.

He prob. wont because he has two kids and he works at shell as a mechanic not saying that is bad or anything but he said its fast enough until his kids go into school and he has more free time and anyways if he does mod his motor all i ahve to do is come home and grab the 86 c-10
