And don't forget to buy an ECU or something to tune with. You can buy just about any Vtec head here: http://www.jdmshit.com/parts/components/index.html

ITR and B16 heads are the same casting, but different components. If you plan on modifying in the future, I recomend getting whichever has the best price. If your plan is to leave it alone, the ITR head is a great option. Don't forget about your intake manifold, the GSR head must have a GSR IM.
Golden Eagle has this conversion kit!! Use the GSR rod and main bearings, Ls Bearing Can't handle the high Revs that the Vtec ecu produces!!!
