Yah, B16B is from CTR's. And you'd be looking at $5000 at least just for parts there.....

All depends on how much u got to spend mate. B16as can be sourced fairly easy and go for 2000 from that place in QLD, auto asian spares or something. The b18cs are a fair bit harder to find and usually go for around 3000-3500 or so. The type R motors go from anything from 4000 (have seen one once but never again) to 7500 for a front cut.
It seems as though the B16a is the most reasonable choice for me. But what sort of power will I be looking at? 118KW? to what my car is ATM?????
And the B16A is the DOHC VTEC right? Is it overall worth getting it, or can you not notice much different?
just put a b16a into my 2nd gen, i dont know what engine u have in your eg.. It was an alright upgrade for me as i went from 130 hp - 160hp..Yes the b16a is dohc vtec.
I think I have the SOHC Non-VTEC motor 1.5 litre dual-carby. Not sure on the power output.
What was your engine to start with?
whats your budget 'cat spew'?
my engine was a d16a8..think urs would be around if not under 100hp
if thats so ull be able to tell a big difference if u goto a b16a.
My budget will be around $1500 to $2500, but I am prepared to save more if needed.Quote:

I just got a price of about $1700 roughly for that engine, but they currently have no stock. But told me to ring back every few weeks to check.
i was also told that the B16B would not fit into my civic??? Something about the manifold being to big..?
Make sure you get an EG6 front cut as the EF8/9 and XSi cuts are all cable tranny - you run hydro.
You will notice a nice difference - but will also need to order in engine mounts from the US - about 600 bucks+ I think.
Ummm - people fit H22As from 'ludes in EGs, somehow I don't know that a B16B is bigger.Quote:

Yeah the B16B is the same as the B16A in terms of manifolds.
