Default USDM Del Sol engines..which ones where?

I am an Integra guy and i know nothing about Del Sols,
but i some1 told me that the 99 del sol has a USDM model with a b16 in it... it didnt seem right but i want to know

I didnt think there were any USDM cars with b16's

does the SiR (JDM) have the b16 then?

First off there's no such thing as a 99 del Sol. They were only sold in the US from 93-97. But about the b16, yes. Sols were the FIRST USDM cars to offer the B series motor. in 1994 and 1995, del Sols came with a b16a3 in them, and in 96/97 they had the b16a2 in them.

Let's not leave out the 99-00 civic SI, it also had the B16 and was a USDM car.

Don't know if you meant sols only but just in case.

I'll help you out and not be an a$$, just so more people won't slam you.

The DA GSR's did have the B17's.

The Del Sol was the first USDM Honda's with B16's DOHC VTEC.
