    Default b16 head on gsr block?

    I know there shouldn't be much of a difference, thought i'd get a second opinion, just asking to try to save a friend some money. what do you think?

    Only if he's putting some pr3 or p30 pistons in it as well. Other than that there wouldn't be much of a difference. He will be dropping about .2 in compression, could maybe even hurt the performance a little.

    It's going slow ... will get it up and running in a month or two. (well hopefully)

    But doing that will not affect the displacement, only the comp ratio. I'd go ahead and build a gsr block with at least pr3's and run a poor mans type r (with R cams that is)

    my buddy decided to go ahead and rebuild the motor, maybe some type r cams, p&p, and a good tune, it wasn't the block like I thought it might be.
