    Is this a reference to the theorized "A17"? Perhaps that's why you want it?

    If you really want one UK is the place to find them most popular engine choice in the 2nd gen Accord Hatch as mostly old people drive them they didn't want anything as scary as a 1.8l!!!! lol!

    The A16 is pretty common around here. But I can't see how shipping it over there would be worth it, think it would be cheaper to just get an A20A and fit it in there. Or if you want to pay for shipping, get a B20A.

    What's this A17? A16 with A20 head or something?

    really just want the bottom end, crank and rods

    a20 block with a16 crank and rods, purely theoretical right now unless someone has already tried it in which case some answers would be great

    Why would you want to reduce the displacement? To rev higher or what?
