nothing is wrong with it............has type r cams...... and skunk 2 retainers........everything is included........vtec solenoid AND INTAKE MANIFOLD.......YOU ONLY NEED THE VALVE COVER......


he wants $500. is it much better than mine? can i sell my head and get enough money for this?

If he only wants $500 for it and says it has ITR cams it is a scam
