d series buildup?

[SIvic]

hey guys what do you think of this possible setup?


d16a6 or sohc ZC block
d16a1 pistons (pg7?)
d16y8 head
d16y6 intake manifold
b18b LS t/b - 60mm


as far as installing this into a 90 civic.....converting to OBD-1 is easily changeable to create a "ecu - harness" or do all the plugs not fit from the 88-91 over to the new grey plug 92-95?


thankyou for any input..

[Kunundrum]

everything sounds like it should fit

D16Y6?!

Where can you find parts/mods for that f*cked up engine?!
I have a 1999 civic VTi and it has a D16Y6 engine. I've been searching the whole web for anything for my engine's type and still couldn't find anything.

all d series intake manifolds are interchangeable.

all SOHC d series parts are interchangeable for that matter, except for a couple small things on certain engines, but for the most part, any d series part will fit any other d series engine

sounds like a good setup man, be sure to let us know how it turns out

[91civicDXdude]

just a thought..

you better have full time acces to some 110 octane race fuel with that 13.4:1 compression you're goign to have

never heard of a y6, but if you mean z6, stick to the y8 manifold, its hella big

d16a1 pistons = P29

[civici]

There are lots of D16Y engines starting from Y1 to Y8.

Mine is D16Y6 >> 1.6L (SOHC) VTEC. 115hp, RPM redline 6.800 -stock-



I haven't found anything for this engine. One f*cked up engine!

i told you, any d series parts will work with your engine. just becuase it is called D16Y6 doesnt mean that D16Y8 parts wont work with it. It appears identical to a D16Y8 to me, only detuned.

some one told me that a hf block with a 5thgen head or i guess 6th gen would work too, will yield mad comp ratio and is good for like low 15s. idk if true but soemone told me that

i've "heard" this as well. I personally am unsure if the valves would clear the non-valve-relief'd pistons. A friend of mine is swapping a d16a6 into his HF, so its a project that we're going to try.. swap a 16v head onto the d15b6 block and turn it over manually to see if the valves hit..
