Default Throttle body question

So I have a sec gen b16a, it has the tb with no map sensor an I need to run one.
So I pick up a b18b1 tb from the junkyard. Will the b18b tb bolt up to my stock manifold? Thanks for the help

Yes all b series oem tb's are same size expect for ITR. They all mounst same way also, only prob you have mixing and matching is one off a 94-01 gsr with snail style intake mani.

Well from my memory vx/cx obd1 are less cc than sohc/ls/gsr what have you. So as long as you dont use cx/vx inj, any other sohc inj is same as b series inj

The DX D15B uses 240cc injectors. The CX/VX non-vtec D15B uses 190cc injectors. The second gen B16A uses 240cc injectors.

Assuming you have the vtec D15B, your injectors should be a plug and play affair.

Well assuming your dx mani/inj had never been messed with they are same ones that are used on a b16. No way to tell. If you happen to have cx/vx ones it would run a tad lean, how much i have no idea. But then again the computer via map and o2 might try and compinsate (idk tho just a guess)
