B16A1
Will a B16A1 engine work with a B16A2 ECU?
Are all the parts on the B16A2 swappable to the B16A1?
I know the B16A1 makes less power, but what's the difference besides that?...The B16A1 has cable tranny and the A2 has hydro right? Does the Hydro tranny fit on the B16A1? And can the B16A1 be dropped in a 5th gen civic?

Re:B16A1
as for the ecu...i dont believe the ecu's are swapable because your car is odb1 and the ecu is odb2...but if you converted your from odb1 car to odb2 then you can use the b16a2 ecu. pretty much all parts are swappable if im not mistaken...i could be wrong on that but im pretty damn sure they are. the difference between the 2 motors is mainly the odb levels..and since because of that there might be more plugs on the head....and a hydro tranny will bolt up to the b16a1 and yes the b16a1 can be put into a 5th gen civic.

Re:B16A1
its true they do, but so do the 5g civics. If your b16a1 came with a cable tranny and you cant just swap for a hydro i believe you can get a hydro to cable conversion thingy from hasport. I cant see changing to a cable tranny that hard. goin from a cable crx to a hydro is alot harder im sure.
As for power. I think they are the same hp, different tq.
b16a1 is 160? (or is it 150?)
b16a2 (99,00 civic Si/Sir) is 160hp.
