ok well i have a 99 civic hatch. what would be a better setup i have a gsr swap complete. cuz my stock single cam just blew out. i posted the single cam up for sale on the other web site houston-imports.com this guy wants to trade me a jdm itr tranny for my complete single cam swap. so back to the point what would be better a straight gsr or gsr with type r tranny. and i have a b16 head also maybe can throw it in but dont know what i can expect from this. what would you guys do?

gsr and b16 heads are practically identical in flow numbers. the differences are so small you wouldnt be able to tell the difference. plus you lose .2 compression points with a b16 head. now if it was an itr head then maybe i'd consider it.
