From what I could infer from the article,
it isn't a B16. A quote here:
"The combination we ran consists of the sleeved 85.0mm block, with the lightweight 5.531" rods, 92.0mm crank, our mid-dome Roller-Wave pistons, the welded GSR head, our Bump-Stix intake cam, a 1997 ITR exhaust cam, our valvetrain components, one of the fabricated manifolds, a 65mm Edelbrock throttle body, one of John's Hytech big-tube headers, stock GSR distributor, and Hondata S200 for tuning. "
It is a Frankenstein build, a B18 Integra GSR head mated to what was originally meant to be a DART-built block but due to water leakage was switched to a sleeved 85mm block (which I am supposing is a OE B18 piece)
Amazing build nevertheless, the attention to detail was paranoid, especially about the coolant passages and how painstakingly he wanted to convert the cable clutch to a hydraulic unit. Awesome.
P.S. borexstroke is 81.0×77.4 mm across the B16 range.
