d15/16 to d17 head swap?????? heard rumors but no results
looking for info to do a d16/d15 to 1.7 head swap.
when I purchased my hatch I got a bundle of parts to do a 1.7 conversion. just curious as to how much I am missing
Ive ran thru the stickies all I could find was general info in complete dseries swaps
if nothing else just point me to the right thread with this info if u dont want to write it

I can't say i have ever heard of anyone doing this particular swap, i'm even willing to go so far as to say i don't think that head will mate to that block, but i could be wrong on that.

Re: (94EG8)
This is the first time I have ever even heard of this swap being attempted. I think D17 heads are from 2001 and up? I'm not sure either that they will mate, but free bump for you for more info.

Are you refering to the D17A series motors from 2001-2005 civics?
If so... no, they arent very compatible with 92-00 D-series motors.
Plus, D17 heads dont even have distributors, the ignition is part of the harness on those cars, so a 1.7 head (if thats the D17 head your refering to) is totally out of the question. D17 motors are turds to begin with, its the blunt truth.
