I went to my buddy's house to check out this B16A1 motor he got for 50 bucks. this is what I found. It is a b16A1 motor. A friend of his came over and swore that it was a vtec motor. Check out the so called vtec solenoid. I looked over it and I don't know if the block is vtec or not. I can not really find any good info on a B16A1 motor. The water pump had 20 teeth. The block had Oil pumps below the pistons. It appears to be a vtec block. Except for the 20 teeth on the water pump. but that could be changed. Now for the head. It had no third cam lobe, No Vtec solenoid (unless this is one oddball). The cam gears were rounded on the edges like a ZC motor. I believe that this is the leftovers from a F* up LS\Vtec swap. It was just weird.

 

Bad pic of the B16A1 sign. It looks like D16A1 but It said B16A1

 

Those definitely aren't VTEC cams...

LOL It is true...it does look like D16A1

 

thats not a screw up of a LS VTEC, its straight up a B16 block with a non-VTEC head... no one would ever swap that, he needs a new B16 head

 

look at the distributor side of the head.That is undoubtedly a d16a

 

D16A Head or block?

 

Isn't the D16 single overhead cam, it can't possibly be a d16 head. Most likely a B18B head. Which motor had the PGM-FI stamped on the intake mani?

incorrect the 89 integra with the flip up head lights came with a DOHC D16A1.
We did a Vtec/LS on my buddy car with the left over parts from a LS/Vtec it ran like ****, but it was fun and something new to try out.

 

DOHC NON VTEC MOTOR.

Thanks Captian Obvious.

 

ahahah no problem anytime :-D

 

 

its a reverse ls vtec

 

It's a D16A1. Not a B, you can clearly see that in the pic. It's the DOHC D series that came in 1st gen Integras. It's nearly identical to the DOHC ZC, except with different mount locations and less power.

 

wow, thats cool, did not know that, i just figured the glare and maybe a scratch was on the block so i couldnt see the B

 

my 89 teg had a D16a1 in it... it wasn't all that bad. I hung with my buddy's 1.6 single cam vtec civic... stock for stock

 

my B18a stomped my buddys single cam VTEC '96 stock for stock, both auto, he was kinda pissed so he threw his phone.. he got a VTECH, so now i can say my DOHC non-VTEC stomped a SOHC VTEC so bad i put the H back on!!!

and it hung with my other friends manual civic '01 non-VTEC
