B16a needs alternator and I was just wondering if the two are interchangeable.

He's right, OBD2 plug is square instead of round. You can splice a square plug on though.

If your B16A is like mine, I had to use an alternator for a DA Integra because of the bracket they used on OBD1 B16As. I made a thread all about it but I can't find it because the search function here sucks.

EDIT found it: https://honda-tech.com/forums/showth...highlight=B16A

Only thing I've heard is there are two types of alternator (not sure but something like Denso, Mitsubishi) and they don't cross over.
