just go buy a stock DOHC VTEC headgastet (B16, B17, B18C) honda or acura will have them. if your looking to make good reliable power buy raising or even lowering compression get different pistons.

if its building up there its mostly likely your distributor, cam, or vtec solenoid seal. either that or your head is warped which i highly doubt.
