Will a D15Z1 head (1.5 sohc vtec) work with a D16y7 motor for a mini-me swap?

If so what will i need?
Is this head D15Z1 the same or close to a Z6 or a Y8 head?

Any help would be great. Thanks

it will work. but i dont know why you would do that. it has vtec-e not vtec-p. that means it is very economical. not the best to sup up. but if you run another cam and tune the vtec then yea it should be better. i would save your cash and buy a y8 or z6 head it is worth the cash.

Well its going in my GF car. So HP is not a big deal!!!! But i do have the VX motor with the head in the car now but its burning oil pretty good. And I also have a D16y7 motor to be put in it. I just dont feel like finding another ECU so it would almost be just as easy to do the swap.

What parts do i need? And does any one know the final C/R from the motor. Is there a C/R chart to look at for these motor swaps?

Thanks any help would be great

Does some one know what parts to use? Please help if you know thanks

orange.honda

run the highest octane you u can 11:1 is pretty high but still streetable. out here in ca i can get 92 at arco. run at least 91. you shouldn't nneed after market studs or anything, but you should replace the head bolts with new ones.

Ok what about 10.6 to 1 with the timing around stock and driving it normal on the streets. Will i be Ok with 89 OCT gas??? OR is the 1.6 to 1 still too much? Is only a lillte more than a SI motor compression!!!
