Default Explain to me the b16, b16A stuff...

This may sound dumb, but, i am new to Honda's. And i want to know the differences between b16a's.. b16's, b16b's. What are each of these engines? Wich model/year vehicles can you find each of these engines in etc.

Could you explain it all to me? I'd surely like to know

B16A3 - found in Del Sol VTEC's in the U.S. (94-95 for sure, maybe up to 1997)
B16A2 - found in Civic Si 99-2000 (although one of my references says B16A4, my other references all agree B16A2)
B16B - Civic type R (non-US)

Other B16's - only found in other countries. Some found in late 80's-early 90's Integras and Civics in other countries, but not here.

B16B - JCivic type R (non-US)
Doesn't California Get Civic Type R's? Anyway the first generation B16A is just called B16A in some Integras and CRXs. I thought the B16A2 was in the Del Sol, and B16A3 was in the 99-00 Civic SI, but not too sure.
And yea B16B is the Civic Type R motor.

Yeah, would have gotten a CTR.....over ITR. B16 is a great motor, can't go wrong with that swap. Cheap and effective.

Andy: who just got a B16A powered 95 CX hatchcrap!
