I HAVE A B18A BLOCK, I DONT KNOW WHETHER TO USE A B16 HEAD OR A GSR

 

This has been covered many times before, but if I was building an LSV then id use the B16 head.

 

same here, have a b16 head...

 

I'd have to agree with 541DB1 and go with the b16 head, just for the fact of better flow, and don't do what most ******** do and slap a vtec head on an ls and expect it to be super fast, do some research before you get into doing something like this

 

BOTH HEADS FLOW NEARLY IDENTICAL. The GSR head will get you slightly more compression and is less prone to detonation due to the shape of the chambers. Some like the stock gsr manifold, some hate it.

My suggestion: If you find both heads and are trying to decide, pick whichever one is in the best condition for the price, since either will work just fine.

 

ITR man!

 

+1



looks like you should have searched too and found out that both heads flow about the same.

 

This is funny lol. Either head is fine. If you don't really know, close your eyes and take a pick.

 

head #2 still available this is a great head for you!

B18c5. Comes slightly ported on the Intake side.

 

You can't really go wrong with any B series VTEC head you choose, but I've heard the B16 head is great if you plan on ever using a turbo.

 

Gsr/ITR here

 

Gsr for more compression or b16 for maybe turbo in the future.. i'd personally would go with the gsr more compression. Just get a set of b16 pistons and your compression would be pretty good. For a poor man ls/v..

 

I have a B16 head on my LS/V but It's ported with a 3 angle job along with JDM ITR piston and JDM CTR cams. I got lucky on mine got it cheap and had it tested and check out at a machine shop finding that it had 1 bent valve. I end up replacing all the valves, springs, valve guides, etc.
