I have a 92 vx civic and was wondering if I could use that one or would I have to get one from a b18b1? I really need to know about this soon, thanks.

i am pretty sure all b-series alternators are the same but obd specific. so in your case, use the 92-95 b-series alternator.

So his altinator from his VX will not work with his new motor?

Jackson

No sir, unless you can make some kind of ghetto way to make it work with the brackets on the b20 block and then find a belt to fit that. B-series alternators are not a whole lot, i actually think i have one laying around somewhere if he needs one.

infamousALLMTR

yes, if you had one laying around that would be great.

I tried using the one off of my d series engine to put it on my lsblock, but the number of grooves in the pulley was different.

Jackson

let me see if i can dig it up. i think its missing the pulley, but the civic one is the same size i believe. i will have to double check. i will IM you.

what about the 1st gen JDM B16a Sir alternator, wil that work in a EG w/B20VTEC? What starter would we use, in a Y21 Tranny?

i am not sure of the 1st gen alternator, if it plugs up to the eg harness, then it should work...but i have never tried that one. as for the starter, you can use the starter that came with tranny for your eg.
