Alright heres a question. What are the differences between the B18B engine and the B18C engine? is it just the head? or is the block different in anyway?

well the block was made to accomodate the v-tec system. So it has oil passages that the b18b doesn't have. The whole engine was acctually made to run v-tec, so internals acctually a little different.

the heads are different yes but also theb18c has a 10:1 compression ration with its head as the  b18b(s) have 9ish:1 comp. ratio. also te b18b has a longer stroke its it is 89mm as the b18c has a 87.2 mm stroke. the bores are the same of course (81mm)-From my research
