It is on the block, its sandwhiched between the oil filter and the block. Water flows through it and cools the oil before/after filtration. No pics, but all GSRs should have it, but ALL B16s should. Before I added my cooler (front mount), my oil temps would peg 250 on the highway on trips. now, nothing over 200 or so.

Yeah, just a small "spacer" in between the block & oil filter. ALL dohc VTEC engines should have them.

Not all do. My 94 B16A does not, and i know for a fact 99-00 VTEC does not.

You're right. I stand corrected. I just checked on my 99 Si...

That's weird considering the b16s will rev up higher than the 1.8L

You need a GSR/ITR water pipe, and the two rubber hoses/clamps, the cooler, and the fitting that bolts to the block/filter screws to.
Its a worthwhile swap if you have the motor out, it'll save your oil.

99-00 B16As should have them. Check the USA Honda Service Manual--they're there.
