Valvetrain can be tricky. I went through this with the head on my B18B1. Be weary of buying online because part numbers often get mixed up.
If I were you, I'd call up Supertech, Brian Crower, etc. and see what you can find for your engine. Most of them will offer you everything in a package. Expect to spend 1k+ and also expect to see a minimal difference until you get a tune for the new setup. __________________

i think endyn does all that work too. if you wanted you could use them for valvetrain parts too, but i'd recommend against that since you live in flower mound and could get a much better deal on the same parts.
btw, when'd you move to flower mound. I used to live out there __________________

yeah, even if i still lived out there we'd be at opposite ends. I lived off 3040 and gerault. wish i had a decent job then....or i'd have bought that house from my grama. She was paying 600 a month (with utils) for a 200k house (3/4 paid down).
