Default What bearings!!??

Hello

I know there are ACL bearings for b17a, but I see that b18a/b bearings are the same that b17a so my question is:

Can I use b16a (rod and main) bearings in a b17a engine?

Thanks.

just get the ones that go for the 1.7 dont wanna mess around whe it comes to that stuff or if you still have your old ones take them to acura and order the colors you need and hopefully remember where which color bearing went. if you wipe the side of the bearing you should see it marked red yellow green and so on

most of the time the color on the bearing will wear off after its been in a running engine so takin it to the dealership might not be helpful...find the codes on the block,crank, rods and match them up and buy them from the dealership

Thanks!!

Is there any online site that I can use to order bearings?

What about B17a ACL race bearings, what do you think, is it preferable to go with the OEM color coded bearings?
