my friend has just done a swap in his eg and the motor is making a whinning noise could it be that he is using a sohc alternator!

 

It is possible that the noise is the alternator belt from your d-series motor, i just finished a b16a2 swap in my 92 hatch and i can't possible imagine why you would put a d-series alternator on the motor.. Ive never heard of that, but either way you should get a b-series alternator, its been my experience not to mess with that sort of stuff

 

thanks !

 

Easy way to see if it is the alt. Just disconnect the belt then run the motor for a few seconds or so. But I have never heard of someone using a d-series alt on a B-series. I have not tryed it either (I should thou, I have all the parts to do it)

 

i tried to. but it wouldnt fit on the bracket
