This My Co worker???
Hopefully Im in the right thread. Aco worker wanted to know what would the outcome be. He wanted to take his GSR head off & install a B16A 1 or 2 head on What would be his hp gain or loss & his shift points be. I told him it wouldnt b a smart choice since you already have a good motor & head. He' d appreciate any extra advice.. Thanks people, holla

It's absolute idiocy to swap heads.. cam lift and VE will remain virtually unchanged between a B16A2 head and the head he has now. :screwy:
Build the motor instead: ITR intake manifold, full exhaust and a set of cams to start...assuming he's planning on an N/A build.

maybe if he could get another gsr head and build it up then slap it on his car?

see...theres an idea...that way "he" has very little downtime and can take his time with the whole setup and build a very nice head
