If it is a GT then you have the G13B . The G13A is a SOHC engine where the G13B is a DOHC engine.<br><br> <p>"Don't argue with stupid people. They just bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience"</p><i></i>

hehe,<br>no,<br><br>G13B is a DOHC 16 valve 1.3L<br><br>G13BA is the engine number on a SOHC 8 valve 1.3<br><br>It's got the same block, except they have different heads.<br><br>G13A is an older pre 88 engine??<br><br><br>but anyway, if you got a 94GTi, then it's a G13B <p></p><i></i>

I'm pretty sure that it's a DOHC, not a SOHC,<br>the G16B is a SOHC 1.6L 16v SOHC?<br>but the G13B should be a DOHC,<br><br>if in doubt, open your bonnet, and see if you got DOHC or SOHC, <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Blocks stamped G13A are in Samurais and such. SOHC 8Vs Swifts have G13B blocks with different internals fro the DOHC. People tend to refer the G13B sohc as G13A though. <br><br>16Valve SOHCs are also G13Bs. <br> <p>-Kyle Jones <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.angelfire.com/de/ksj/myswift.html"><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong> Junk-Yard Turbo set-up, formerly NOS-fed, constantly evolving 1989 Suzuki Swift GTi</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br></p><i></i>
