so as many of you know i am replacing my jdm d15b head cause i cracked part of the casting
here are my thoughts for the new head
i ordered one off ebay for 140 it sayd d15b/z6 head so not sure wich im getting but ether way they are very simailar
completly rebuild the head : new valve stem seals new cam seal new headgasket clean it up real good do a valve adjustemnt.
shave the head .020 or .015
swap cams put my d15b cam in it just to make sure i get the good cam
adjustable cam gear
possibly get a tune not sure yet
thinking about getting an msd external coil and dizzy cap
tell me your thoughts and or suggestions thanks

tune it, but theres no need for an aftermarket ignition, honda ones are great. put that money towards a chiped ecu and some dyno time.

alright i wasnt sure on the dizzy
how much can i get away with milling/shaving the head ?
is .040 way too much?
on zeal autoworks cr calc - piston to deck clearence means the pistons sticks out of the b lock correct?
