Kind of.

It's a B16A longblock, with a B17A crank and rods. A little confusing, yes, but it's really hard to find a B17A block- believe me, I've tried. However, since the B16A and B17A deck heights are the same, you can just swap B17A internals into a B16A block, no problem. Also, since this is a B series engine, you could keep ALL your belt driven accessories.

I wrote that. So, needless to say, if it were me- that's what I would do.
