have a 99 USDM b16a2 block, crank and 4 mains
and
have a 95 JDM b16a block, crank and 5 mains

if i said that the b16a2 block is cleaner and want to use it...would this work:

B16a2 block + 99 or 95 crank + 95 b16a 5 mains + OEM bearings?

or do i still need a line/bore?

Have a machine shop check the clearances, but you will probably need a line bore/hone. It was tried on my B16A2 and they were way off.

 

you have to look on the crank and the block for the numbers, so you get the right bearings thats all, it will work.

 

the numbers of the mains are all cool....1,2,3,4,5 all there, but my main question i dont want to go with the fatter ACL bearings....want to go with the OEM bearings? is that possible?

 

if anyone have any more reviews will be cool, but i guess it all depends on the garage if they say its ok or not
