head question?

[randomtask37]

i have recently been hearing alot of talk about swapping heads by my honda buds. there all talking about crap like getting a b18 vtec head and putting it on there b16 (i dont know the engine names, those are just made up to make a point) and it got my thinking
are there any DOHC heads that u can swap onto a m20? (m20b25) to be exact.

Yea, you can put on an M50 head with a little work.

No doubt. If you modify the water jackets to line up properly, you can run an M50 head on an M20 bottomend.

That will work huh? What exactly has to be done to make them line up? What are the water jackets?

Well shit, why do people put all those pesky M50 bottom ends in then?

It'll go on my car too, right?

Yea, all you need is a dremel, a drill press, and some duct tape.

Bolts right on.
