Default Clicking noise/Valve Spring ?

What's up guys. So the other day I start my car and hear a somewhat loud clicking/knocking noise. I assume it's my O2 sensor that fell out of the check pipe, but later come to find it's coming from my engine, the head to be more exact. Well I have my honda guru friend take a look at it and he says that it's not loose valves, and that I probably need new valve springs. Now here comes the ? Does anyone know if I can use B-16 valve springs in my GSR head?

Just in case I decide to replace and upgrade, can anyone tell me what would be a good performance valve spring set to use?

PLEASE help a brotha out! I need to get my B20/Vtec running again!

Check your LMA's.

They have two springs in them. A major spring and a minor spring. The minor ones sometimes stay binded and this will cause crazy clicking noises.
