B16 identification
Hey I guys I have a b16 on the block is stamped b16a n on the bottom it has anumber wich reads 1003189 I was wondering what car did this engine come out of n when I need to buy parts from the local autoparts for what car do I say I need the parts any information will b appresiated
I knew I had this saved somewhere:
Most people know there are two first generation B16a engines, both with 160hp.
The 1million series and the 5million series. Meaning the engine number starts with either a 1 or a 5
The 1million series were avliable in the Integra XSi and RSi from 1990 to 1991. And I can confirm there was an Auto option.
The 1.2million series was avliable in the 92 XSi and RSi, and was also avliable with an Auto.
The 5million series was in the Civic and CRX SiR, and no Auto was avliable. However when the 5gen Civic was released the hp was upped to 170hp, but the engine numbers continued on starting with a 5, and other than some visual differnces it can be hard to tell if you have a 160 or 170hp engine.
Well here are the numbers after the 5-
50 1990 160hp }
52 1991 160hp }4g Civic/CRX SiR
and
54 1992- 170hp 5th and 6th gen SiR, SiRII and CRX delsol SiR.

nice. now i can check to see if its the 170 block or 160.
neato not that i care.
to the op 94+ del sol VTEC it'll be a b16a3 but its the same. or a civic SI 99-00 but. but if you have an OBDO one you can't get electronics for either of these i wouldn't think. mechanically it'll be the same.
