D16Y7 head on D15 block?
I havent had any luck on finding a D16Y7 engine. I was thinking that maybe we could find a D15 bottom end, and put the D16Y7 head on the D15 block? Could I use the D16 head gasket, water pump, and timing belt?

I want to do it because I need my car fixed. I cant find a D16Y7 engine....... so a combination of what parts I have and what parts I can get- D15 block- would be cheap.. i dont want performance or anything. just a working cheap engine fix.
