I'm assuming the machinist used a DOHC ZC head, not a B-series head.

that would take too much time effort and money anyways. I would rather do a swap

If you swap anything but a K series motor in it will not pass inspection.

Hey my mechanic is very reputable, he gives me a break. And I think the gapping hole in the firewall would be more of a concern than the DS airbag lol.
