Default B16b question..
Buddy of mine is selling a b16b with a very nice head on it, but he said that the block has a b16a crank in it. I was wondering of that would affect the performance or reliability of the b16b block, he explained what the difference was between the 2 cranks and said it was ok to drive anyone know if this is true?

The b16b crank is heavier and the rod bearings are a different size

So does that mean it will affect reliability?
