Im facing a little problem since i have the full b16b in a del sol, my machine weights more than 1400kg and the new engine got plus 50kg than the normal b16a2, so im planing reduce weight in everything inside the car to get the top out of the engine power, one the things came out in a talk with some friends was since the b16b is a 1.6l using a b18 block, why not just switch it with a normal b16 block, would reduce the extra 50kg, but same time i dont know how much would afect the engine working. (also would not kill my suspension setup so fast)
The plan was to get a b16a2 block and change the pistons (ek9 ones + oil pump etc) see if i can still get the 185hp stock.
Also was looking for a itr full block to make a few changes to plug it on a gsr head for a civic, for trackdays fun.
I would be looking for a bit of bout, power + reliability
