Can a manifold from a D16 be made to fit a B18B?

 

If you cut the deck plate off and make a new one for the b18b then maybe.. Im not sure if the tubes will line up or not..

Is this a cast or tubular manifold?

 

Not going to work well. Even if you remove the flange the tubes will be way off.

The port spacing is just too different:

D-series: 85-85-85
B-series: 90-80-90

 

i've seen it done on a b18b with the d16z6 apexi kit. try taking the head gasket and putting on the manifold...the way it would be installed. see if you can port out manifold inlets. If I remember correctly that's how it was done to fit the manifold.

 

wasn't there some older posts about someone using a d series greddy kit on a b16?

 

yea but they used a bseries manifold.

 

I thought so, someone was trying to sell me a D16 HKS kit for my B18 and I wanted to make sure first.
