just for general knowledge what is the difference between a b16 and a d16 engine. i have an 89si and my block says d16 but when i look for parts all i see are b16s

 

D16 is a SOHC (Single OverHead Cam) 4 cyl.

a B16 is DOHC (Dual .....) 4 cyl.

B series motors have VTEC (your motor is a NON-VTEC motor), and newer D series motors also could have them. Also, the B series offers more power, and are more popular with in the market, hence more available parts.

Just do some more digging on sites, people do offer parts for the D16.
