I saw one of these cng powered fleet vehicles the other day and did a little research on them and im curious if they have a shoc vtec d16 in them.

The specs I could find:
SHOC Inline four
16 valve
100hp @ 6100rpm
98ftlbs @ 4000rpm
12.5:1compression. (those pistions would be hot for a allmotor build)

they stopped doing d16s a few years ago.

I dunno how long ago they started making them. They are fairly new.

What ups the displacement? Stroke/bore? Is that crankshaft compatible with other d series engines?

I remember seeing these a while back. There were people on here using those GX pistons from what I remember. Tough to search for it because GX is going to be omitted from your search.

I guess thats why when I searched nothing came up.

i bet the crank is compatible since all civics from 01 and up have a d17 if they are sohc.

gx pistons are popular for NA sohc builds. I believe they actually yeild a lower compression ratio in a 1.6l sohc than the p29 pistons do.
