The kit will give you the other parts you need to make it work. You need the dowel pins to fit the head to the block, the reworked head gasket, and the oil supply line for vtec. You can get the parts seperately and save a few bucks, but just get the kit - you won’t regret it. ---

BTW - you will need to chip the ecu to get it to run right, so make sure it’s OBDI. Get a conversion harness if it’s not. ---
