the block has a date molded in to it, its round and if im not mistaken shows the month also and year of manufacture. it can be seen from the front in the K engine. ill look at the B and post where it is later.

yes it should be in the front (it is on the H) and normally you round up 1 year from whats printed to get the actual distribution year (or so im told).

Any other spot that you can check? On my JDM H22 it's not very clear I can't tell if it's a 98 or 96.
