Default Ls type r head swap info??

On my integra ls I wanted to do a vtec type r head swap. The head will be complete and have all the tricks done to it ( port polish, cams, valve spring retainers etc....) I just wanted to see if anyone else could recommend something else I would need to make the swap better. Like if I need new injectors, water pump etc... thanks

I'd worry more about the oil pump.

Hey thanks guys, any more info would be great I'm trying to make something with good power, reliability etc..... Is the type r head the best choice, or should I go with some other vtec head. Also would a jdm type r ecu be ok?

The Type R head is the best one stock. I'd take a properly ported B16 or GSR head over a Type R head however. If you're going to have it ported by someone experienced with doing Honda head work then just snag a B16 or B18C head.
