It's actually a 1.6L engine (code B16B.) Basically a modded up version of the
B16A found in the Del Sol VTEC, '99+ Civic Si, and other various H cars in
Japan and other parts of the planet. Arguably one of the better naturally
aspirated, high-revving 1.6L engines, although the SR16VE is its closest
competition (the SR16VE N1 spec making more power, though.) I wouldn't mind
having either engine (B16B or SR16VE N1... one for my CRX, and one for my
SE-R... heh!) But those things are rare, and if you could find them, it's
called "major $$$$". Oh well... we can dream can't we? (about the SR16VE, I mean)
