So just a quick 2 questions.

jdm b16a sir2 is what were workin on. with only i/h/e for the moment.
i have a CTR N1 crank pulley on there now. all i need to know is are they decent cranks? would an OEM or ATI one be better? i don't need or have a/c or P/S.

and im about to pull this motor out and theres the hole in the back of the head where a bolt can go. Will the intermediate shaft bolt work for it? it fits i just wanted to know if you all thought it would hold up. just to be sure.

this'll be deleted after i get the answer.
thanks for any help.
