If you look at the first sticky post in this entire section, you would be able to decide, now go ahead and do that.

b17s have a little more stroke length and therefore about 2-3ft/lbs more tq all the way across the board(in stock form....gap gets bigger with mods), other than that, they are identical.


one of the popular things to do(when they can be found) is it to buy a b17 crank and rods and put them into a b16a along with other internals such as ITR pistons and flat valves for a fairly cheap "sleeper" motor
