And I want to not spend money. But that never works out right. I'm going to at least take this b20b head off and see if it's worth reusing after putting in some new valve guide seals. If not, I'll just toss in the recently redone b20F head that I have lying around... I will get to use some decent oil because I won't be going through a quart of it after 500 miles of driving(hard, and high rpm of course). And I'll get to see what condition my cylinder bores are in.

Turbobricks thread in more depth, and discussing whether I want to get a cam as well. I don't have money so I think not. But maybe...?
