Now that I'm stuck with (stuck with???) a B20E...and won't be doing any porting or valve work...I'm wondering what bits might improve engine operation without spending the GDP.

Shop will do bore and hone, balance, lighten F/W, balance entire assy.

K or D cam, JP's follower/pushrod set, blocked deck, Cometic HG.

Accumulated wisdom advises that standard Headbolts and cap bolts are just fine.

What about beehives...there are some nice ones right height and bind in 80-100 lbs seat pressure...has anyone made some to fit standard valve pocket, with standard locks??? (new retainers needed)
