lol @ scram.

 

ok i think i messed up. will a B16 4-1 header fit my B16b?

 

I don't see why it wouldn't..

 

Anybody what rare oem parts were made for this chassis?

 

can you be more specific?

 

My bad rare OEM parts for a 4 Door EF

 

Isn't that what happened?

 

ANYONE SEEN/OWN a j series ef? I'm curious about hood clearance. I'm thinking about dropping one in the rex

 

Try it! I doubt there would be hood clearance with ANY production hood. you would probably have to cut it out like every other civic/integra

 

idk i think its a waste... its kinda pricey when u start adding up the misc, unless you happen to have a 03 6speed type s wrecked.

 

I've seen it in an ek and it had a cut hood. stuck out a good 3 or 4 inches


I have an h2b in my car and that hood clearance i can deal with, but dang thats alot of adjusting to do. I might just go with a built F22a or h/f hybrid

 

j series are the new k series. i will take a b any day of the week. but im still in a d series but hey you gotta start somewhere right?

 

I wouldn't think so. From my understanding the B16b is based more off a b18c block.

 

NO. the deck hieght is the same as a B18C or ITR....you need the header for
an ITR.

 

Exactly, or else you could end up with a header that you have dent for clearance, and or having it coming in direct contact with the oil pan.

 

aw man...sometimes i just don't like this engine...already bought the header

 

It's ok, you can always sell it.

 

Well ****... haha I'm a noob. :/

 

No it doesn't clear the hood. There is a Red from the eastcoast that has one. I don't remember ever seeing a hood on that car..

let me check my HD for pic

 

no. the b16b is the same height as a 1.8L block. you'll need an ITR or similar header.


the b16a header isnt tall enough, it just wont fit. a b16b is basically a destroked b18. the deck height is 20mm taller if i remember correctly.

 

oops.... i scrolled down to see if anyone had answered. i went down to thevtecnician's post. guess i didnt scroll far enough.

 

Guess you learn something new each day. haha

 

Sup Joe! haven't seen you around here for a while....

 

Became a family man. no time for projects, no time for a crx, no time for my s2000 anymore. i miss workin' on cars, but i love my fam. gotta find something that all of us can do together. and out of all of my thoughts, its been camping, fishing, outdoors stuff. who knows!?

 

I knew it had clearance issues, I was just wondering how much exactly. But then I saw an ek. That thing stuck out past the hood a good 3 inches. I decided against that swap for that reason and also I don;t want my car to be too off balance. I brought it up in the shop the other day and one of my co-workers said i was gonna hit the brakes too hard one day and do a front flip. lol.

But still, I'd love tosee that pic if you have it vega
