Errr what? You mean a motor swap? I don't know what head you can change on an a2 without swapping out the entire thing.

03CivicEX4Door is an unknown quantity at this point
So far i have only seen 1 company making aftermarket head's for our motor. It's aluminum and i donn how well known the company is. Yes changing the head will give you more power, as long as you know what you're doing and get the right setup. Change the head you better get a new cam, personally i'de go with new rods, roller lifters and rockers, spring's, valves ect if any one even makes any of thoes part's i donn. It's had to make hp in our car i donn exactally what a new head and valve train will do ask around ppl know better than i do. I know more ab Chevy BB especally my 454 LS5 in my 70 chevelle.
