the way i figure it is this,there is absolutely no way it would start making this sound like it is for no apparent reason,or because of age only...i live in daytona,and this problem started happening shortly after we had all of our hurricanes...truth to tell,i dont know what the problem is,but i want it fixed,especially if its somthing i can fix before it becomes a bigger problem...

Now,will those injectors on ebay work,the one i previously put the link on for?
Sounds like a rod knock/spun bearing type sound from the head? Youre POSITIVE it's from the head, and not the block? If it's from the head, it could be bad lifters, or it could be a bent valve maybe? If you need a replacement head, check out www.thepartstrader.com and forsale forums on various boards. You can use a head from a B18A, B18B, or a B20B/Z. I picked up a B20 head for $60 bucks from a guy on honda-tech.
