b18 block, b16 head...im not sure if i would need the b16 or b18 head studs...im thinking b16, but then again ive been wrong before

and also would i use a b18 timing belt w/ it since it is dependant on the block?

TIA

 

gsr head studs

and the timing belt has to mach the water pump and oil pump
aka b16 water and oil = b16 timing belt
ls water and oil = b18 timing belt

 

Any of the B18 engine headstuds will work. You need the studs for a B18 deck height. GSR or ITR head studs will work fine.


the timing belt goes with the water pump, but not how it was before mentioned
Vtec water pump = B18 Vtec timing belt (either ITR or GSR belts)
non-Vtec water pump = B18 non-Vtec belt (either LS or CRV belts)

you have to kep in mind the difference in deck heights between the B16 and B18 blocks as well as the pulley diameter difference between the non-Vtec water pumps and the Vtec water pumps
