i just like all honda motors in general...just because you've worked with one doesn't mean others suck...
i was just be a cac mainly, i wasn't really getting up in Paullls face.
Rod/Stroke ratio on the B16A is nearly perfect for high engine speeds. A d16, while cool little motor, could never rev up to 12000RPM, thats just how its is...but a Turbo will always make more power on an engine with a longer stroke,
this doesn't mean the B16A sucks and you should have no respect for it though. the B16 a is the patriarch of the honda motor family. we wouldn't have other B-series motors, we wouldn't have K-series motors, and we wouldn't have F20C's if it wasn't for the B16A.
