Extractors will not fit.
The rest of the exhaust will be close enough to fit I reckon.

As above, extractors wont fit.
The LWB piping and muffler etc probably wont fit the SWB without some modification

Oh good pickup that a 1990 G16b will be LWB.
Hang on though, wasn't 1991 the first year of the LWB?

Just guessing.
Could be a late 90 manu, but 91 compliance.

More info would be very useful.

So the G16b must have been swapped in at some point. G16b's didn't exist in 1990.

Regardless, it doesn't change the answer. Extractors won't fit, exhaust mostly will.

Now we're all confused. G16B is a 16 valve motor with an alloy rocker cover with 16valve cast into it.

The engine is fuel injected.

There are some g16a's which are the same.

Most g16a's (like 99.99999%) are 8v carby and have a plain black steel rocker cover.
