Is it possible to use B16A's dual valvesprings in a nonvtec B18 head?

considering it as a option to run with crower 404's. as importing a set a valvesprings will be to expensive ie. could rather do a lsvtec.

any idea's?

thanks

It is possible, I've put itr inner valve springs in just for the hell of it with stock cams. But if your using 404's I would suggest using bc or crower.

I'm a fan of not cutting corners.


so I say just buy the correct springs for your app.
