B17A is the first gen GSR engine from the 92-93 Integra GSR. It also has the best of all the cable trannies to. (YS1)
The cams are similar to the the 2nd gen B16, hp is 160, but more torque throughout the power band due to the larger stroked displacement.

B17A1 So nice, I bought one twice. Yes '92-'93 GS-R's- North America only.
Don't know if they're better than B16's, I never had a B16.
