that isn't so much a 16valve head... it has 12valves +4 "auxiliary" valves. you have an HF head or something like that, with 8 normal valves plus the 4 CVCC auxiliary valves... google cvcc to see what I'm talking about. the 12 valve (16) head is the better of the two but you're better off contacting a canadian member or posting a WTB ad looking for a canadian DX head- it fits exactly like stock and works perfectly... without the cvcc bullshit.
I repeat, both of those heads are boat anchors... get some money for their aluminum.
