it better be a b18C1 gsr or b18C ITR head. if you are talikn about a b18A non-vtec head, don't even bother trying it unless you wanna waste time. VTEC is tha shiznit !!!

You don't need to get the ITR head. The B16 and ITR head are the same casting (PR3). The ITR head just uses different intake valves, different valve springs and lost motion assemblies.Cams too, obviously. The ITR head just has a little port work done on the intake ports. If you want to upgrade your head, just have it ported by Portflow, Alaniz, or another reputable machine shop. Upgrade your valvesprings and retainers. Get a good set of cams (ITR or Skunk2 Stage 1). Hope you have money, cause this stuff ain't cheap.
