Its all in what you want. The D16z6 is a pretty decent platform for a start since you already have it. I made close to 600hp out of a d16z6. Was it practical. NO. But neither is my j32 civic

Called today to figure out what's going on because i haven't had a chance to go there because of work and the lady who answered the phone said the owner and manager were busy and will return my call. When i told her why i was calling the manager came in and took the phone, and told me the owner wasn't in today... this is after the lady said the owner was busy. I also asked him if they got the email i sent of the damage, he said yeah... then i asked why i didn't recieve a call from them since it's been 10 days and he said he didn't know. He is suppose to call me first thing in the morning but i will be there when they open. Sorry for the long rant and more then likely bad punctuation lol.

Sorry guys been busy with the car. Well I got some questions. One is the timing on a d15b1 the same as the timing on a b7. I'm doing a mini me swap. D16a6 vtec heads an d15b1 block. Recently had the heads on the d15b7 an wanted to knw if I need to adjust the cam gear or can I use the same adjustment that I had for the B7. I also need to knw if the valves out of the d15b1 heads will work for the a6 heads.
