so honda is not maiking any B engines.. mean my b16a3 is even rare then it is.

 

Uhhh...I wouldn't say that...there's still quite an abundance of B series engines left in the world.

 

:werd: I read the same thing in Honda Tuning. Don't worry about it.

 

Don't worry, it's not like the B16A3 is special.

 

:fawk:

 

not really true... now honda is stepping into the crate motor world kinda like chevy does ... god i would hate to see how much a brand new honda crate motor cost. if you figure a 50,000 mile b16 complete swap runs 1800 +..new from honda has to be more than what you payed for the car

 

If Honda started making crate engines, theoretically a B16A should cost almost much as a B18C :thinking:

Then again, they might market some high performance crate engines better then ITR spec... haha, yeah right. This is Honda we're talking about. I'd love to see the B return, even if it is $6000 and comes in a wooden box.

 

i thought the B16A1 and B16A2 is rear not the A3. isn't B16A3 off the 98-01 Civic Si?

 

A few companies are making aftermarket blocks off of the honda blue prints. How many years spanning how many decades were the B made?
It's like long block v-8's. As long as people want em, and can make power with them, they will be around. If not, time for someone to step out of the stoneage and get a K series.

 

Has anyone tried putting a K engine in a del Sol or a 6th gen. or earlier Civic? Seems like it would leave a lot of empty space...if it even fits.
