i currently have a b16a head and b18c (itr) head

both are fine, have skunk2 gear there, cams,gears,springs,retainers,valves..

will i essentially have the same head which ever one i use?

as the itr head is worth more to sell then the b16a head,

just lookin to save money

thanks
 
Itr head is polished round the runner entrance into the cylinder and has an extra angles valve seat finish.
 
well which ever head i decide to use itll be gettin hand p&p....

would valve angles make much difference on power output?

its for a b20..

i wouldnt be asking if i wasnt swapping everything in the head for skunk2..

search was unsuccessful:)
 
If your going down the route of P&P then i'd use the b16a head and sell on the b18c head. You should get a 3 angle valve job done when having the head P&P to make the most of the air flow, no point doing port work to increase air flow then having a restriction as the air enters cylinders.
 
Agreed, sell on the B18C head and cash in on the extra premium it commands and spunk it on the B16a head.

Will doing that head work to the B16 make it flow as well as the B18C head?
