I have a 92 CX hatch....when the hg finally blew at 80,000 miles I pulled off the 8 valve head and realized that the pistons are set up for the 16 valve head as well. I then made a call and was able to pick up the 16 valve non-vtec head off a 96 del-sol along with the distributer and intake manifold...
I used the head with the stock cx exhaust and intake and it worked fine with the exception of having to slot the dizzy more to get the timing retarded enough to get it to the stock timing mark. Other than that it did make the hatch respond quicker than the 70 hp it originally had. Now I am almost ready to boost it which will get me closer to the 200 hp mark.
Also make sure that you use the proper timing belt for the head your using.
Even though my block was the 1.5 my head was the 96 1.6 and I had to get the timing belt for the 96 1.6 to work.
