Default Which rods are these?

Sorry for the newb question, but I'm trying to buy some b16b rods, and I want to make sure they're real. On the side they say S 4, and on the bottom they say 1172.

the best way to do it is to measure them. B16B rods are odd in the fact that they have P72 cast into the rod cap. i cant really remember or find any pics of mine when it was apart, but of the ones i found it looks like there is a S4 on the side and a 1272 on the cap....

anyway measure them..... ~143mm

dont let that foul you...

i have PERSONALLY held TWO different sets of Civic Type R/B16B/PCT rod/crank/pistons...one of which i was there during the disassembly so i seen the rods as they came out...

and they have BOTH HAD P72 stamped on there rod caps. B16B's use a P72 rod journal size, so i would imagine that they used a P72 casting for making the B16B rods...
