Ok well a d16Z6 or Y8 is going to give you about 125-127 hp. You will need the head of course. Then a VAFC or convert to OBD1. Basically it really. everything else is interchangeable. If you are doing it though I would probably go ahead and replace somethings though. waterpump, timing belt (need one for the z6 or y8 yours won't fit), need a headgasket for the z6 or y8 also.

Well you can get the head for about $150 ??? I got mine for $210 port and polished with oversized valves. The VAFC will run you about 300. Then misc stuff depends on the brand you get.

Check Ebay...Ebay is your friend. My friend picked up a S-AFC2 or somethin like that for very cheap and it is a good place to look for parts.

if you intend on putting the vtec head on your d15b6(if u still have it in there), dont! the b6 is only a 8 valve engine and the pistons are notched for only 8 valves as opposed to the 16 in the vtec. also instead of converting to obd1 or if u cant afford a vafc, you might want to look into getting an auto pg7 ecu and have someone chip it and use the auto trans pin to activate vtec.
