    Of you have your heart set on a B16 build that is decent - build a 11:5 CR B16 w/ a P/P head, decent header, a bottle, and call it a day. You won't be anyhere near the King Daddy, but it will surprise a lot of people and be reliable/fun.

    First decide if you want torque or a high reving screamer. Get the ARP rod bolts they are cheep insurence. CTR pistons with high comp valves will give you 12:1 compression. I dosen't matter if you do cams now or later always install a good set of valve springs and retainers. A skunk2 intake manifold will serve you fine avoid cheep imatations. Do not cheep out on the header either get one from Mike at battleground or buy a hytech. Make your cam decision based on what engine management you are going to use. Just to let you know with the right parts and the right builder a B16 can make good power. Mine makes 192 whp on a dynopak I also use a 4.78 final drive to overcome the torque issue
