it will be a b16 block with b18b head, the combo can be done it's just not optimal for performance. i got the head with the car and block was free, it needs rod bearings but that's it (copper on 2 of them, none spun) i figure i may be able to advance the cams to be able to get better mpg out of it, or at min decrease overlap. I will tune the ecm also to help out my chances.
I know this is not an optimum combo but i don't have more than about $50 in it at this point, so i figure why not try right? if anything maybe it will make a fun tinker toy until i can find a d15z1 and trans
