use a b16 head they flow the same as the ITR b/c they were both made on the same casting line from the factory but the ITR has more refinements done toit

do a stage 1 cam on stock valvesprings ifyou want to keep it below 9K rpm valve springs and retainers if you want to go above that

a b16 head isnt a b20 head.....


just use factory LS cams. they are a slight upgrade from the stock B20 cams, and are pretty cheap.

because the b18 and b20 bottom end needs to be gone through before you put a B16 head on it.
