Yeah it fits it is a 95mm crank. The rod ratio goes to shit though. Techinically it could be built with factory parts. Prelude crank, b16a rods and whatever pistons you want. R/S ratio would be about 1.37:1 though, which might get you a couple of passes before you stuck a piston through the block or spun a bearing.


If you wanted to get forged internals you could get an eagle ls rod that is .137" longer than stock and a piston with the wrist pin moved up .250" to make room for the increased stroke and slightly longer rod. This would yield a r/s ratio in the range of 1.48:1. This wouldn't be too bad for a race or low mileage motor that would at least see a change of rod bearings every couple thousand miles or so coupled with a very light piston. Definite no go on a turbo motor though. If you look at the really fast turbo B motors they all run a stock 87.2 or 89 mm crank.
