Default question about header clearances

i have a ls vtec swap in my 98 integra ls,(b18b1 block/99 b16 head). im just curious i have a good deal on some hytech replicas. but im not sure if they will clear the oil pan. the current owner has them on a ls, but when i add the b16 head will they rubb or hit the oil pan or even sit to low for clearance ground wise. also what headers will work for this swap, thanks. if it matter im running a stock 2000 gsr exhaust with a electronic cutout. thanks

i wouldnt think putting a b16 head on would change much header clearance wise. If you have ls bottom end then the ls header should work fine. i could be wrong but im pretty damn sure

Yes, they should be fine. The port spacing (away from the head/block mating surface) is the same from what I remember.
