$1000 OBO  
I thinking of selling my my 2000 B16B CTR Short Block because I already have an LS longblock for my turbo build. No sense in ruining a perfectly good B16B.

does the engine need a rebuild? what condition are the rings, etc? how many miles? if it doesn’t need a rebuild, what does it need to be put on the car besides a headgasket and head?

I’m not a potential buyer, but these are some of the questions an interested party would ask

I know the price seems high but that’s what they go for. I’m negotiable… Shoot me an offer if you’d like.

The motor is in great shape never burned any oil. No rebuild necessary, mileage is probably around 50-60k, all it needs is a head gasket and head.

I can vouch for this because it never failed me. The initial swap cost about $6000 from what I was told, and that is pretty much the going price of a b16b swap with labor, so the price is reasonable.

Bump even though It doesn’t matter if it sells. B16B converted to 1.8 is way more baller than a ls/vtec
