Questions when remounting a B16A head - what to do/not to do
1. Do I need new head bolts? Some people claim Honda head bolts stretch and need to be replaced after having been loosened one time?
2. What ways to screw up timing belt install or anyone have an URL to somewhere with a perfect HOWTO?
3. Will be fitting ITR/CTR cams + ITR valvetrain. Anything to take special note of? Problems/disadvantages with using the dual ITR springs on both IN/EX?
4. Valve seals - will they need to be replaced? How do I tell? The exhaust ports look pretty bad with a lot of **** in them -> leaky valve seals? HOWTO on changing the seals?
5. Any general reminders?
