Default This motor looked suspicous.

I was checking out my competition at the local Solo II event, when I notice one of my competitors had a swap. At first I thought it was an LS/VTEC, then as I got closer. I saw it...B18C5. I thought to myself, why does it have a B16A head? Then I thought to myself, it's hot. What do you guys think? Is it a hot block? I have never just seen a B18C5 block. Well needless to say he kicked my B18B *** at the event.

ITR's and B16's have the same head design.

The ITR just has a better parts (everything) including a mild port and polish.

Just because he has a b16 head on an ITR block does not automatically mean the motor is stolen. Many people have this set-up and it has it's advantages. I hope you don't start accusing everyone with frankenstein like set-up's to have stolen motors.

That is not suspicious at all. It's a cheaper way of getting an itr motor.

Nothing will ever be suspicous except the person. I have dealt with stolen motors before. There is no reason to accuse anyone of anything unless there is better reason than their motor looks wierd. Are you sure it was an A2 head? or just the valve cover???
