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 have a D16Y7... email me at oscar_425@msn.com

bump. anybody have an answer?
|
um.....why would you want to do that? are you looking for any kind of performance gain? if you are, it will be very little and not worth the trouble.
|
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.

just buy a D16Y8 instead and you'll have vtec and about 25 more horsepower. have you checked a junkyard for the motor?

If my memory serves me right, I believe you can't mix the 1.5 and 1.6 heads because the displacement is in the block.

i dont think theres a differnce in the heads. you can put a D16Z6 or D16Y8 head on a D15B7 motor, so you can put a D16Y7 head on a D15B7.
