d16 swap

will the d16z6 from the 92-95 civics drop into 96-00 civics?

no.

wiring will change.

obd1 into obd2 chassis. no go in most states.

no kidding......
if i get the OBDI to ODBII conversion harness it should solve that problem....im talking a about bolt up proporties...will lt use the same mounting points as the y series engines.....anything wiring i can take care of no problems there......

every state im also certain wont allow you to legally put an older motor than the car into it. you may want to check that first.

ive already checked...im good to go...
is anyone gonna answer my question?

yes the motor will swap but youll need the obd conversion harness, but why not just get a d16y8 from your model year?

because ive seen higher dynos for the d16z6...and i believe it is the stronger of the two.....

from the sound of it.. you want to build this motor up... why not swap for a b series?

i like the d series motors...my goal is not top speed or max HP...the d-series motors can still be quik as hell....i wanna push the limits of a D

if your goal is neither top speed or max HP? what are you going for, best stock motor?

if you want a D build up *I advise against it but w/e search for why*
there have been issuces i've seen and read about with the Y blocks mainly the y8 yet the head is pretty cool with a great flowing intake mani all oem.

the z6 block with a y8 head is probbly best setup for Ds I like y8 head for its intake mani and better quench zones then the z6.

thats what i was planning...everything from the block up built for boost........

i would have to agree w/ ace....that is a pretty good setup, but the y8 head can only flow so much, even w/ a port/polish head, cam, springs, retainers....i mean it'll pull all the way till 9200rpm(where i stop pulling) but it lacks the power u can get from 2 cams...i was once in ur shoe's, then i blew a valve spring retainer, droped a valve, bent the valve guide, and bought an 05 Acura TL...now my civic is sittin in the garage collecting dust...

Theres only so much you can do with D's. I dont know why you want to degrade down. its going to be alot of work. whatever dude you can do what you want.
