Hmm, who are these "some" who say that? 2015, lol...
I wouldn't be too worried about availability. Worst case, it would have to be shipped over from Japan. *shrug*
Check this out - Honda still sells parts for the 1970 N600.
(including the block)

who cares what they cost by 2015?
if I still have the iTR by then, most likely it'll have some newer R-heart transplant in it anyway...
Or not enough mileage on it to justify getting a new block...
(anyone up for a "damned 04s"?)

you better stock up on a few b18c5, then sell it on ebay a few years from now as New Old Stock.
I said I don't want a title!

Isn't it US law to require OEMs to make all parts available for at least 7 years after production?
If so, then no. There will still be blocks. And Honda is very good about keeping a good supply of parts for older cars.

I thought it was longer than that, but either way, 7+ years = plenty of longblock supply.

actually, its 10 years from the last model year.
not sure if it was a law, thought it was just an industry standard.
btw, this does not mean, they produce it on a regular basis, they just have make it available.
