It appears to be a B16A... maybe a B17A, but you would have to measure it. Can you measure the width of the rod journals and post them ???

Re: Help identifying b series crankshaft

I have already told you it appears to be a B16A or B17A crankshaft... your measurement of a rod journal width confirms this. Differentiating between these two will require you to measure the STROKE of the crankshaft which is a bit more difficult. The B16A has a stroke of 77.4mm, the B17A is 81.4mm... so "seeing" with the naked eye the .080" difference in stroke between the two would be unlikely.
