or you could just look for a del-sol vtec which has a b16a3, as far as doing a swap i believe you have to do one in the same year or newer as far as the motor goes

i trid but theyre all like 7-8000 and if not theyre modified, or have alot of miles, i want one stock.

but ur saying the motor just has to be newer than the car?

yea some ppl there can be annoying, thats why i'm primarily here, are you really set on the b16?? in all honesty save your $$ and get the gsr swap, another member "stealthy" on here has a delsol w/ gsr swap (well should be in by now) the gsr responds better to mods and you gain some torque fo sho ;)

You'd want to check your local laws. It's different everywhere.
