Re: ITR pistons in a b16
Has the block been decked?
Has the head been milled?
Then nope, won't smack.
B16 pistons have a higher DOME than the P73 ones, so your compression is higher with the b16 pistons.

It should be roughly .5 lower, Like 9.7 ish or something i think.

Or just keep the b16 pistons.
Or ditch the b16 block!

^what he said. you dont have any low end with that block. I would get a gsr short block, which you can find pretty cheap, and put your b16 head on it. it would be a nice improvment in power
