I just swapped my B16a2 short block with a new B18c5 short block from Acura. The new block doesn't come with a dipstick so I was wondering if I could use my old B16a2 dipstick. I measured the dipstick tube lengths from the outside of the block to the top and they appear to be the same length however I don't know if there's a length difference inside the block.

If anyone knows, that would be great, otherwise if someone could measure the total length of their B18c dipstick (up to the stopper, minus the handle) I would appreciate it.

 

B16 part number on the ITR dip stick

15650-P30-000 DIPSTICK, OIL 2000 INTEGRA 10.54

 

Any time you are trying to compare parts check with an online dealer like http://www.hondapartsunlimited.com and compare part numbers

 

Thanks, I will, I see that they are the same

 

im going to mod the handle and make it something cool hahaa jk but i wonder if something like that has been done before
