Default b18b question(a bit noobish if i do say so myself)

ok, people say well the b18b is so much less than the b16. but i have recently began to look into the 2 and i have found the prices nearly the exact same. am i looking in the wrong places or something? hmotorsonline.com, ebaymotors. for complete swaps either or is about 2g's give or take a little. unless some one can find that they are not the same price.

basically the question is where can i find b18b's for cheap and a complete swap(that is cheaper than a b16), thanks.

no it was obd1 b16a xsi version(think like 93 japan version, it says it obd1) 170hp and 113ft lbs of tq if i am not mistaken. its weird. do you think that my local junk yard might have one for cheaper(b18b that is)?? everywhere else they are practically the same. i am thinkin b18b with a b16 tranny possibly.

hmotorsonline does not have b18b's complete change overs for less than a b16(its actually more expensive)please look what i posted and for the record the b16 tranny has alot shorter gears.
