B20E Head height 140-160

It's a vertical valve engine. Valve to piston clearence is only a problem on engines where the valves are inclined.

.030" is probably enough piston to head clearence. Check it with solder after you reassemble it.

downshifts can sometimes be a problem.

Do you stuff up often or rarely? :D

Maybe you need to set your shift light to your downshift rpm rather than your upshift rpm.
