95 CX Question
Hi guys,
I have a 1995 CX. I am very close to buying a head off a 99 DX to do a Mini-Me swap this summer. What I need to know is what exactly is the model of this head? D16y7 or y8? Also is my car a 8v or 16v? I have heard only the 92 and 93 are 8v but im not sure.
thanks for the help.
-Jay

Re: 95 CX Question (CXinthemaking)
well why dont just do an d16z6 or y8 swap???? its more money but messing with the stupid cx motor???? ( ihave a cx too!) so i would say save the money and do complete engine swap. thats my opinion

Re: 95 CX Question (lvcompetition)
dont put a 16v head on a cx motor. i think they only have valve reliefs for 8 valves on the pistons. just do a swap you will be more happier with it.
