Is the two G16 blocks the same, I am led to believe the B series is stronger than the A series, is this true.

If I get another G series, would getting B series and putting on the A series goodies be benificial, or not at all, or no match up ?

B series have more webbing around the block and are apparently less prone to cracking (apparently). If the A was originally a carby I believe the pistons aren't dished like the 16v ones are.

I've had both bottom ends and no issues with cracking.

Baleno blocks have a slightly thicker casting
Seen alot of vit blocks crack and seep coolant just under the exhaust manifold
