i am a D series guy..... buy i am going to guess yes.... both b series... both DOHC. only thing that might make it not the same is cuz it is a 1.6L and a 1.8L . im not sure of the piston diameter would be different cuz of that, or if it is just in the stroke?

you could always take your stock one with you and have the new one brought out to you, lay yours over the top and look VERY VERY closely to see if all the openinga dna angels of cuts are identical, hole sizes........ good luck!
