F20C for the win

I remember in 1987 my friend bought a new CRX in the middle of a snowy winter month. That CRX got through everything. I was so impressed, the only thing that could slow it down was getting high centered on side roads that were not being maintained.

It is amazing how everyone has gone over to the K series. While technically a superior engine, there is absolutely nothing not to like about the B series. Serious power can still be made. It's kind of like the old school Chevy 350 of the Honda world. I'm guessing in time as the import world develops there will be more "heritage" builders who will use era specific engines. Just my speculation though.

It’s similar to the Chevy world how everyone dogged the lt1 when the ls1 became the new thing. Meanwhile an lt1 currently powers the quickest stick shift GM car in the country. A lot of how the car performs depends on the build and the chassis it’s in.

B16 is by far my favorite Honda engine !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I personally used to have an '89 Si with B16A swap and loved it. Working on building my B20B at the moment 😁

I'd love to have a b16a swap in my EF; in fact I'm currently looking for a B series for it.

i recently refreshed and installed my 91 obd0 b16 into my dc4 as a daily due to circumstances but it with a ctr intake and greddy evo 2 exhaust and a crt trans it is most definitely fun. once im on a good map it will feel right. the p28 lacks lower end power and vtec is nice and the original ls computer is ok on low end but the two together or really the correct tune would light it up for a daily. full interior, abs, subs, tools. and im hitting 100 in under 25 seconds. I do miss the obd0 computer letting revs go way higher. but it keeps me from blowing it up until i get the gsr/b16 head combo in the CRX. shooting for a turbo build on that one

I had a b16a in an Eg hatch and I personally loved it

I had a B17 in my 88 CRX Si. Boy I miss that car. I've had a supercharged AP1 S2k, turbo E46 M3, ESS Supercharged e90M3. Still think my CRX was just that much more fun.........
