question about my motor
 
hey guys,
so i got a new car and i noticed where it has the stamped model number for my motor says B16A. My questions are what motor is it? B16A1 or B16A2? How would i tell?

civtegra90 04-26-2007 06:20 PM

most likely an A1, what year is the car?

crazyae 04-26-2007 07:25 PM

yes it is refering to A1 and as civtegra90 said chassi stlyle will also give you a good indication to confirm that and what the previous owner has done.

gullycivic 04-26-2007 07:35 PM

its a 92 integra gsr, but the b17 was ripped out and this engine was put in..

civtegra90 04-26-2007 07:41 PM

yeah, so it would be OBD-1. most likely the B16A1 from the 2nd Gen SIR.

B16A (OBD-0) is from the EF SIR
B16A2 (OBD-2) is from the EK SIR

gullycivic 04-26-2007 09:16 PM

so it has 168 h/p stock right?

civtegra90 04-26-2007 09:22 PM

sounds about right

A b16a is a jdm b16 motor. You can tell wat gen motor it is from the year. A b16a1 is a first gen usdm b16 which came in such cars as the del sol. A b16a2 is a second gen usdm b16 which came sir civics.

gullycivic 04-27-2007 09:54 PM

yea but its in a 92 integra right now so i wouldn't know

fousse69 04-29-2007 03:26 AM

most likley its a b16a1 and its a first gen usdm from a sir

BrowNKiD 05-01-2007 10:26 AM

the year of the motor is imprinted on the motor

AMKK 05-01-2007 11:21 AM

Underneath the engine code, (B16A) there will be a string of numbers. Rule of thumb is if the numbers start with 1, then it's a first gen B16 w/160, second gens made 168.
