make sure you get the 2nd gen SIRII motor, not the 1st gen b16.

First B16 had a lower compression. I want to believe the older motor had 9.6:1 compression. For a turbo, thats pretty good but who knows what the condition might be. I think thats why he is saying stay away from it.

If this is the 2nd generation motor, $400 for a longblock is the best deal IVE seen.

1st gen = cable clutch. you need a bunch o' crap from HAsport to convert it, IMO too much of a pain in the ***..

Educate me, you cannot use a hydro tranny on a cable clutched based motor?

First gen. was 10.2:1 compression. 92 civic==0BD-1. First gen. B16 is pre-OBD or OBD-"0". You have to change the distributor and injectors to OBD-1.

Also if he gets a cable tranny, you have to buy a hydro to cable conversion kit from Hasport.

Actually, a 1st gen B16 came with 10.2:1 compression..same as the US B16A2

You can use a 1st B16 with a hydro type tranny.

The only thing that will be a pain is the sensors. You have to swith a lot of stuff out, such as the distributor, and I believe, the injectors. Those are the major ones. I'm not exactly sure what else you need to change, but those are the basics.
