I am bringing my 92 GS-R back from its long coma I induced. Its going to the paint shop in 2 weeks and I cant wait to have it look as pristene as the day I bought it! Anyway, I am in need of a 1.7 engine, as mine is beyond repair and I am wanting to keep it as O.G. as possible, do any of you g2'ers know of anyone I can pick up a black sheep motor from? any help will be apreciated thanks -

 

always keep your eye out in the marketplace....i found one for 700 bucks in a wecked teggy....craigslist sometimes but they are def hard to find

 

its hard to find the b17s, and you might as well go with a b16, since its nearly the identical motor and can be head for very cheap...

 

I am aware of the similarities between the b16-b17, I have 4, b16 blocks, an 00 type-r engine and 3 ls engines, and I am interested in the b17 stamp so if anyone might know where to find one I would really appreciate the help.

 

i told you keep your eye out in the marketplace...as far as i know there are no actual places to pick up a b17(like hmotorsonline, streetimports,ect..) like i said i found mine, 86k in a wrecked integra for 700 bucks...you have to keep your eyes pealed to pick one up it took me almost 9 months to find one with a descent amount of miles...if i come across anything i'll be the first to let you know

Thanks I appreciate it.

 

have you tried haprecycling.com? It's a junkyard that specializes in Honda/Acura.. at any one time they have an assload of wrecked teggys and civics. I got a D16 from them on the cheap a few years ago for my old project car.

 

I have used them in the past, I will definately hit them up, thanks!
