whats a b16a head worth?

[VT3C]

not exactly what the thread is asking, but I've seen B16A1 heads (no manifolds) go for $100 on NZ forums..

$100 B16A head plus your old B18A block and manifolds = LS-VTEC... plus obviously work involved and other things like VTEC solenoid, DIZZY, VTEC ECU and labour etc...

================== <------ Valve cover

----------------------- <------ Head gasket

| O.... O.... O.... O.... | <--- Place to fit exhaust manifold

Above is the whole engine, whole thing above the head gasket is the head, below is the block

LOL......... Shit drawing, can't use space....... damn

im sorry,,im a newbie...
wat is head>
isnt that just the whole engine?

It's the top half of your engine. The half that houses your inlet and exhaust manifolds, your camshafts, valves ect.
The bottom half houses your pistons and crank ect.

$100 are just the block without all the bolts and stuff right? It's a real empty head
