95 dx engine in si hatch?
well i blew up my d16z6 a cpl weeks ago and i finally think im jus going to throw in my motor from my old 95 dx coupe, i was wondering if it would be worth my time to switch out the head and transmission from my d16z6? i know the trainy is fine and the head are fine from the z6, would this be worth it, and what kind of power would it be , compared to the d16z6? also is there a write up on this, like what water pump, oil pump, etc, the only thing i know is that im gonna use a y8 headgasket and timing belt if i do this, is there a write up on this anywheres, i searched, and found out about the oil squirter in the top back of the block, and could i just use the z6 harness, dist and whole head? i also have a b17 head lyin around, would anything from taht work, i know the tb does so im sure i will throw that on there, but does anything else work like fuel injectors etc? i will prob going turbo with this motor so i need opinions please and any and all help is appreciated

Well you won't be able to swap the Head untill you go buy a VX timing Belt. And it would be worth it to put it on with the Tranny I would...
...Well when i had my D16 Head on my D15 it made a lot of diff cause DX already has 106 some HP and putin that head on got me in 118 range (Guessing) and with the SI tranny?.....well dunno.
If you ain't got the money, just put the tranny if you got $50 for timming bealt and for Head Gasket...Go for it.
If the Head raised my Compression?
Well i really can't say cause there had been people here sayin it doesn't and some say it does
