do u know a place that has a rebuilt or good used head for a d16z6?

 

you're going to want to find that locally, anything else, you'll be paying out the anus.

 

What does a valvetrain adjustment involve?

Should the valve clearances be checked first?

 

i had found a rebuilt head with a mild port job for like 500 and some change..... just trying to find my options if the head is bad

 

Yeah, I was asking the questions as I thought you might want to know ej6buddy's answers. I was also curious myself.

 

ha ha i got ya... u know im curious..ish....

 

sorry, must be a miscommunication, when i say "valvetrain adjustment", i just mean readjusting the valve clearances, that's just always been the way i say it. as for the head, for that price, i'd just look into a whole new long block for sale.

 

ya i thought about doing the whole new motor thing.. i did that on my 1st gen eclipse along with a mirage tranny for it..... hell i have a b18 c sitting at my buddies that belonged to a former friend of ours that has a bent rod but id really like to stay with the d series..... so hell i might just rebuild the b18 or do another d series and just build up the one im running now..... im just on a budget right now cause i live in oklahoma, getting married next month and planning on moving up to south dakota in july..... so right now im just tryin to do everything i can to make sure this lil ****ball coupe of mine will make the journey.......
