Live close to Sacramento, looking for a good shop to buy parts and get good advice for B16 swap. Also need to find someone that can tell me what year(s) my B16(s) are by the serial numbers, been told one is 2000 del sol, and one is 92-95 sir, but then someone else said it is opposite of that. Just want to get to the bottom of it.

 

btt

 

post your information up? you can tell the year of the motor by the head stamp

to a certain point. that's hoping there was no major motor work done (liek a blown head).

2000 Del Sol? they still make those?! listen, don't pay attention to your source, go ahead (if possible) post some pics of the head, right above the exhaust manifold. there are numbers that may help. B16B_coupe already posted this.

 

O.K. Will do so when I'm off my crutches. What abuot the block serial numbers? What numbers on the head? I did not find this info in the FAQ's. Is it compiled somewhere?

there are series of numbers on the head, right over the exhaust manifold.
those numbers would tell you what year the motor is. as for the block, there really isn't anyway to tell of the serial numbers. unless there are additional numbers behind the engine code.

for example:
B16A = jdm motors.
B16A2 = 96-97 del sol, 99-00 civic si
B16A3 = 94-95 del sol

great post! i am too lazy too look for one.

XYRS2LT this is exactly what we are talking about.

 

lol, i made that myself thats why i got it. hahha

 

Alrighty then, that is very helpful. Now what about a good shop around here? Looking for one with a dyno, the one already in my 92 hatch needs some tuning. Want to make sure cams are adjusted right, and the other one I want to put in my 97 coupe. This one I will need external parts for, I.E. intake, harness,etc. Want someone that can tell me exactly what i need.
