My friend wants to order a b18c type-r motor from honda motors online, but he said it just has b18c on the block...not c5. if both engines in japan have the same numbers on the block, how can you tell, from the outside if it's a type-r motor or not?

Thanks for any reply's

jdm type r just have b18c only usdm have the c5 on it

 

oh do you mean how can u tell the diff between the jdm gsr and jdm type r? red valve cover,. different intake manifold, head casting, HMO will sendyou the right engine, they wont dick you ,they are good peoples

 

also notice the front of the head will say p72(gsr) or a pr3(b16,b17, and type r)

 

The only reason I say this is, because on the phone he said "I dont want to get your hopes up, the block just has B18C on it." It does have a red valve cover, but you can put those on anything. Where on the head will the casting marks be?

Thanks

 

On the gsr head it will say 'P72-2' right above the header, the left side..

 

a little bit of searching couldve answered your question.
anyways, here's where it says "PR3" above port number 2

 

i recently just ordered my B18C from them and they sent what they said they would send. very good people at HMO. also FYI i ordered the motor last thursday and got it on monday, thats 5 days from california to south florida.

 

not trying to hijack my block is b18c but my head is p72-1 is that a normal gsr head?

its either a JDM GSR motor (block & head) or a JDM B18C-R Block with a GSR head..but most likely its a JDM GSR/SiR motor....

 

thanks for the info
hopefully it can be put together within the next week
