Default D15B7 head on D15B8 block, which head bolts and which timing belt?

I'm swapping a 16 valve B7 head onto an 8 valve B8 block. Can I use the B8 head bolts and timing belt? If not, which ones will I need?
Thanks for any help.

I'm not a fan of VTEC and this is the motor I have. I've had plenty of 1.5 motors and have fed them plenty off boost with no problems. This motor will be a DX motor with the B7 topend so there is 102hp(not that I'm bragging)instead of the 70hp from the CX.

I guess I'll find out in a few minutes if I can use the head bolts and timing belt. Wish me luck.....

Use the cx bolts and belt.
Enjoy the 30 extra ponies.

A stock b7 isnt too bad in a light car. Its actually decent.

Good luck.

The CX bolts and belt worked. Much better. Still a ******* turd with the CX tranny, but it's faster and that's what matters. When I pulled the head off, oil drained down into the open exhaust so my neighborhood is a giant cloud of smoke right now.

Thanks for the help.
