yes. all b16As use the same timing belt. no difference at all.

then wtf it is just short and i have tried 2 different belts

Fabrik8

You've made sure the tensioner was loose...?

Hondas_Only

is there a tensioner? i've never done a timing belt before but if it's just short i would assume there is something there for adjustment that is slightly off.

I don't think they're interchangable, either way here ya go

RP has it right, the B16A's are the same. And Fabrik8 is likely dead on as to the culprit. That or whoever you bought the belt from is giving you the Canadian SOHC belt in which case you should immediately return to the place of purchase and proceed to smack the idiot across the head with said belt.

Hopefully though the later isn't the case as you very likely don't have a Honda belt then, which you -should-.

RPRacing

they are all the same! sometimes they are just a pain in the butt.

yes there is a tensioner, make sure it is loose enough to move freely. route the belt on in this order:
1-crank
2-tensioner
3-water pump
4-exhaust cam
5-intake cam
