BECAUSE THEY ARE YOU MORON. they may be similar in many ways, but they are still different. thats like saying 2 hondas that leave the factory are exactly the same, they are not.

Another thing, in some states like cali it is illegal to swap in a motor older than your car...

as far as your "mileage" aspect, get your head out of your ***.. do you really believe when someone tells you that grandma only drove the car to and from church and occasionally the store? low mileage b18a is one thats rebuilt completely.

and lets go for a below the belt hit like you did by calling me a honda-tech type.... where is your turbocharged car? have you ever had a turbo in your car.. i dont mean your brothers factory equipped eclipse gst/x either... so come with something now... you step to the heater your bound to get burnt. Ouch, I've been burnt by an e-thug...
First off, the stamp means nothing when it comes to the actual build of the motor. Why did they stamp them differently? I don't know. The only real difference between the two bottom ends is the obd2 version has a an extra sensor in the bottom end, and a different type of PCV system.

The OP is going to convert to obd1, so does it make a difference if he has a b18a1 bottom end or not....NO! :1

The head might be slightly different b/t b18a1s and b18b1s but who really cares. It's not something somethat really matters. Yes the intakes are different, but that has been established.

What really matters between the two motors is not the mileage (How the ---- does it matter if the LS motor is an A1 and out of a 93 integra, or if it is a B1 out of a 94 integra? ) but how the car was taken care of.

There is no way you can tell me that just because the motor came out of a 90-93 teg, it has more miles than every B1 out there... I have personally pulled quite a few A1s that have had less miles than both of the 94 up integras I've owned... The only way you know how a motor really works, and how many miles it has on it, is through documentation of maintenence, and hearing/driving the motor. This is common sense.

Bringing the "well I drove this and you didn't" ---- into here is absolutely -----tarded of you. I didn't turbo one of my cars personally not because of not knowing my ----, but because working on my friends cars was enough of a headache for me already. Other things come up in life that are more important than turboing your car. Most people sell stuff saying..."I need to pay off a debt," "I have kids," "I'm broke"...or something. I've done plenty of work, especially on LS motors, to know my ----. ---- off and keep your HONDA-TECH info out of threads that obviously don't need it.

thanks for the novel it was quite boring to read and too see you all "hyped up" over what someone on the internet said to you pist you off..

and this documented proof would be what? what the ------ place/person tells you? excuses are the main reasons upon sellers to make the intended buyer have trust and go on what a cluster tells you... i have a 91 integra in the garage and the clock says 80,916... DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT? get your head out of your ------- ***. i bet you truly believe a intake and exhaust cam are exactly the same too dont you? why not they are both cams... and they are both from the same motor... they are the same... according to your honda-tech buddys they think so... and seeing as your the one with an account there.. hmm

but enough about that. lets put the nail on your coffin: According to honda/acura: Cams are different, cam gears are different, valves are different, pistons are different, crank is different, oil pickup is different.
its ok little boy.. one day you might know your ----. oh yeah excuse for your non-turbo *** too? or just a poor little bitch? btw.. hows that double wide treatin you ?

Assuming a motor has less miles b/c it is a b18b1 instead of an a1 is retarded. I simply can't believe people fall for that. Then again, I guess it's a good thing since it funds all those people selling overpriced b1 motors with high miles.

The bottom ends in the motors are identical for people who don't care about the stampings on the motor...I don't see what you're really trying to prove about it. Honda changes part numbers for the years they make things, why? who knows. Probably so stupid people will buy the new parts instead of the exact part that is cheaper and a little older. If you're referring to how the intake/exhaust cams are different b/t the heads, that is a terrible argument. Many people who build LS motors will tell you the difference is so small, that it really isn't worth taking the came off of one motor to swap it into the next.

This main reason I'm on honda-tech is to sell stuff. I've probably sold at least 10-15 motors on there (making at least 100% profit on each), is that a stupid reason to be on there? I think not. I'm not saying it doesn't entertain me to read the stupid posts there, but like I've said before, yours is no better than most there.

This "argument" is stupid, I've proven my point, as I'm sure you think you've proven whatever you're proving too. I'm done with responding to your dumbass comments.

i would prefer b18b1, to make wiring easier (not having to convert), but the deal was for a b18a, not a b18b

I have stock 240cc/min high impedance injectors. They were removed from a running OBD1 B18 teggy.

I'll trade you them for your 550's, if they're all the same impedance.

LMK by pm.
