I AM TRYING TO BUY A B16A TO PUT IN MY 91 CRX SI AND THE PLACE SELLING ME THE MOTOR AND TRANS IS SELLING IT SEPERATLY. I AM GETTING THE Y1 LSD TRANS BUT THE GUY JUST PICKED UP A RANDEM HALFSHAFT AND SAID IT WAS THE RIGHT ONE BUT I DON'T KNOW IF ITS THE RIGHT ONE FOR THE Y1 TRANS HOW CAN I TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE Y1/J1/S1 HALFSHAFT.
DESCRIPTION OR PICS WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

 

First thing, make sure it fits in and will bolt up to the block properly. If so, get the casting number off of the support bracket, and possibly an overall length.

 

THE GUY INSERTED IT INTO THE TRANS AND IT WENT IN FINE BUT I CANT CHECK IF IT BOLTS UP TO BACK OF THE MOTOR CAUSE THE MOTOR STILL HAS THE A/T FLEX PLATE STILL ON AND THE TRANS IS SEPERATED AND BEING SOLD SEPERATLY . I CANT CHECK UNLESS I BUY THE SWAP AND INSTALL A FLYWHEEL AND THEN BOLT UP THE TRANS THEN CHECK IF THE HALFSHAFT LINES UP WITH THE BOLT ON BLOCK. DOES ANY ONE HAVE COMPARISON PICS AND CAN TELL ME WERE I CAN FIND SOME OR IS THERE ANY THING ON THE HALFSHAFT ITSELF THAT I COULD I.D. IT. THANKS.
