For sale: 240hp re-engineered Honda B16 that revolves in a clockwise direction - opposite of the original B16 engines rotation. Below is a video showing how the reverse rotating B16 looks during operation.

This engine has only dyno time on it, the person who commissioned its development went another path, and so his investment (over $18,000) is yours for just a little more than 1/3 of that!! Just $6500.00 - this is a very firm price.

I know this is a Toyota Forum... but we have a few folks who co-mingle... pass it on if you know someone who just would love to have this....

Send me an email... oldeskewltoy@yahoo.com please title the email: "Counter Rotating B16"

Alright Dan,

I'd have this in a second if I didn't already have my engine. Basically a Honda FA engine for $6,500. Great price...!!

if it came with a w58 or leen conversion... it would be ridiculous and awesome.

Free bumps.

I'm curious as to what has be done to make it go clockwise. google is no good for this, only forums about people asking about it.

cams mostly.... pistons and rods usually don't have a direction of rotation - stock 4AG rods do because they squirt the thrust cylinder wall. Crank usually can be used as well. The next things to tackle would be oil pump(none - dry sump), and water pump... and they way the timing belt gets routed... the water pump not only rotates in the correct direction to allow cooling, but the water pump pulley is now also a mid span tensioner on the belt to minimize belt harmonics
