Icon2 2000 civic lx- blown head-PF2 :(

Need to know if a remanufactured y8 head will work with my y7 engine? if so does anyone know a good place in or around Orange county or online with good prices and a decent warranty? If the y8 won't work then the y7 I guess would be good to. Thanks for the help everyone

Will it throw any CEL codes? Would any modifications be required? Would it mess with hp or torque?

It will gain you a little more power because it has a lost motion assembly.

Essentially, the y7 and y8 have identical heads, just the y8 has one extra part that allows a more effective VTEC. Oh and the cam is slightly different to work with the lost motion assembly.

Putting the y8 head on is an upgrade and preferred.
