Hey, I just picked up an engine privately from a for sale thread in a local forum.
Once I got it home I became suspicious that something funny had been pulled. The engine is supposed to be a complete B16B with a 2001 Integra GSR tranny.
First thing that made me say wait... was that it is obvious to me the valve cover was painted red from its previous colour, black. This is evident with some red dripping marks over black on some hard to reach areas. If B16b's come with a black valve cover I was unaware.
So please help me, I am thinking its possible my head is actually a B16A with a B16B block!
Attached are pictures of any stamps I could find on the engine to help someone who knows more identify it.
Thanks!!
