Default Re: information for my B16A

And on the block, under B16A and above HM, it says "5409320". What does these numbers mean?

What type of motor this came out of and what year and sub model?
Can I have all the info and specs of this motor as much as possible with the given info.

You have a 1991 B16A head. That's a tough one to say what it came out of though since they were producing Gen 1 and Gen 2 B16As in like 4 different cars in Japan.

Do you what type of distributor code will fit and run this motor? I went to the parts store yesterday and they gave me a couple of options. The tech said it was a TD44U but I'm not really sure if this is the one of my motor.

You can run like 18 different distributors for this motor.

What car do you have? What ECU do you have? What OBD are you running?

It is swapped into a 1996 Civic, but the motor is running OBD2 but is running a OBD1 B16A ECU.

The OBD1 and OBD2 electronics are the same, sort of. They will work and mingle together nicely. It is strange that you are in this subforum with a '96, but I'll help ya anyway.

[TD-44] OBD1 B16/GSR/ITR VTEC 1992-1995
[TD-68] OBD1 B16/GSR/ITR VTEC 1992-1995
[TD-84] OBD2 B16/GSR/ITR VTEC 1996-2001

That's what my google search says. Any OBD1 B-series distributor should work. So think of a car with a B-series motor that is post 1992 and ask autozone for the distributor or take the code and search around.

[TD-44] OBD1 B16/GSR/ITR VTEC 1992-1995
[TD-46] OBD1 b18a/LS/B20/CRV 1992-1995
[TD-68] OBD1 B16/GSR/ITR VTEC 1992-1995
[TD-84] OBD2 B16/GSR/ITR VTEC 1996-2001

That's what my google search says. Any OBD1 B-series distributor should work. So think of a car with a B-series motor that is post 1992 and ask autozone for the distributor or take the code and search around.
So my best choice should be the TD68 and not the TD 84 on the OBD2 engine harness with jumper harness to a OBD1 ECU?

I would've thought that since it is swapped I'd rather put the motor year instead of the year of the car.

Any of those distributors will work and there is a much longer list. That is just the first link when I googled "Honda b series OBD1 distributor".

When you go to the part store, your car doesn't matter. The make, model and year of the car the motor came out of is what you use. The Del Sol VTEC is a popular car to 'own' when you have a car with a B16A in it.

EDIT: Not my listing, but may be worth looking at:

You can really find all this information on google or on this site by using the search function.
