The b18a1 and b18b1 are fundamentally the same, I know there are some minor sensor differences and little things in the head but other than that nothing changed over the model years. I have heard that the b1 has stronger webbing around cylinder walls, but can't confirm.

I read that link later bud, to tired now..
