99 percent of b20b motor come with ls heads. P8r head is rare and very valueable. Maybe 1 in every 500 has a p8r head

The head is what makes your rpm range honda motor stroke is to small to make a difference. Except with the b16a which is in a world all by itself
cool, thanks for the info. that must mean i can rev to 8k and be golden. i probably wont even go past 6k until i get used to it. maybe even lower than that.

hopefully by end of summer i will at least have the motor an mounts in my possession, which im sure by then chris will have me a very nice low millage block....

then i will have to look for a nice ls trans. since i do a lot of highway driving ill need it. ive always wanted a ls swapped hatch, now im gonna have me a Frankenstein hatch!!

yeah i already have a 2 1/2 inch exhaust with a resonator and glasspack that sounds **** right now. so i think a header will wake it up some more. then toss a 50-75 wet shot behind it..... :1
