    I'm pretty sure that the only engine we got up here in Canada was the B3.

              why not just go with the 1.6L DOHC motor? its got more power!

              1.3 DOHC just for uniqueness?

                    Yeah unique-ness is cool but not when your definition of unique is a $3600 100hp engine. You could get into the 15s with a B6.

                    And yes, a B6 SOHC manifold will bolt to a B3... you need the older style B6 though.

                        You tell 'em J!!!!

                        I'm wondering if I could just remove an engine and use it for Big Kids' Soapbox Racing! Off a bigass hill with a couple miles of downhill. 8)

                        Where do they do that, anyways??

                            If I wanted a car with a B6 I'd go buy a 323.
                            And if I wanted a B6T I'd buy a 323gtx, or a capri.
                            And if I wanted a BP I'd buy whatever car that came in.
