I need a new oil pan. I have a B16A. Can I use any B-series VTEC/non VTEC oil pan?

Actually B16, LS and B20's use the same oil pans. GSR's and Type R's use a different one because they have crank girdles. Also a GSR pan will be stamped P72, not sure if the others will have any stamping on them.

So, in short you need one for a nonVTEC LS or B20 or from another B16.

The bolt patterns and such are the same between all the B-series oil pans, but the GSR and ITR pans are a little deeper right where the pan starts to slope down to the sump to accommodate for the main cap girdle.
