    So your saying that I can run by bent valves on a type r ecu? Or are you saying go with stock valves and a type r ecu instead of aftermarket valves, springs and retainers???
    my engagement point is at 6k and I am probably going to set it at 62-6300 rpm.

    Well, bad news just became worse news... My motor is blown!!!

    I took it up to AutoFab (sorry Mike, but mainstream is just too far ) and after they took off the head, it was all tears and sobs. Two of the valces had broke off and destroyed two pistons and the entire head was shot up and they were hole callore!

    Now, I need to know what would be my best be as far as price is concerned. Since the car is already wired for the b16, would it be best to just get another b16, or should I get an ls for half the price and re-wire?

    Also, if I go ls/vtec, could I keep the wiring the same?
