couple of questions ive been putting off
setup
car - 97 civic hx
motor -95 d15b /w 3 stage v-tec.. vtec-e not hooked up just reg
obd1 conversion of course
p28 self chipped and tuned with crome
#1 so when i got the motor and went to install it i realized one of the 2 holes for the drivers side mount was stripped out. i was wondering what size tap and bolt to use to fix it
#2 i have the option to put on a y8 head built with s2 parts and i just wanted some input on if i should swap em out?
im looking to do a swap when a good deal on a motor comes around gsr,h22 and id like to start buying parts for boost. im thinking to buy most parts in mind for a dohc turbo setup. should i boost the single cam also? just get a cheap d manifold?
opinions?

Re: couple of questions ive been putting off (duefuss)
well i only have the power vtec hooked up right now ive been thinking of trying to see what its like with the other one but just havent gotten around to it
and yes it lacks a bit off the line but i also have really long gears (another reason i kinda wanna boost the single cam)
