You can put the entire d16z6 head on. You need a p28 ECU.

some people think the y8 head flows better...i dont think it's worth it the effort though really

1993civicex

and im one of these ppl i well for a fact the y8 intake mani is a better flow desighn i dont have a dyno but the ports on the y8 look bigger than the z6 im going just by looks not mesearments so dont flame me if im wrong

Ragecloak

i was talking about the head...but really my feelings apply to the IM as well...if i was going to change it out, i'd just go with some aftermarket performance IM

i havent seen anyone get big numbers without turbo on the d series. even if you get a better head itll only really show after you turbo the bitch. it dont cost to much. ive heard of guys doing it for around 1 grand. if you got the patience to shop around.

turbo with a good tune on stock internals will get you 230whp.

Are you seriously retarded? God, some people really have to get out of CARS, and get their high school diploma.

. o 69 o .

for d-series... high compression pistons, forged rods, lsd tranny, ZEX cam, good header, itb's

Average Al

z6 out flows y8 head

y8 im out flows z6 im

a6 block is probably the thoughest its got a gridle

mcgee*

alright, thanks yea cause im gunna try getting most power out of d series head cause i dont have money to do a engine swap. so i was just going to do the "mini me" then later on turbo it.. so the z6 head is better or its all based on who says what

Tru

well, in the long run, building a NA D will prolly coastmore than a B16 swap, but i walk EM1's with my D16 all the time. my setup is a D16Y8 with the following: Edelbrock PerformerX IM, ITR Throttle Body, DC 4-2-1 Header, AEM Intake, APEXi WS2, and Evasive Shifter. Soon to come will be a Crower stage 2 cam, valve springs, and retainers, omni power valves, and a port and polished head. If you have the time and money(really not that expensive), you could get some JE 10.5:1 pistons, or even better, OEM P29(D16A1) pistons, that will have your compression around 12.5:1 if i remember correctly(In a y8 that is)

most d-series have a girdle, so i wouldn't use that as a basis on which block to choose.

couldn't have said it better.

mcgee*

so which head is better the y8 or z6?

found this is forum:
D16Y8 1590 9.6:1 127hp@6600/107lb-ft@5500
D16Z6 1590 9.2:1 125hp@6600/106lb-ft@5200

so it looks like the y8 is better

but average al says:

z6 out flows y8 head
y8 im out flows z6 im

so would z6 head with the y8 intake manifold with ITR throttle body be the best setup

Send to DPR, for stage 6 head rebuild

gerryturbo

only way to get good power out of them is to boost them.

Otherwise just do a B series conversion. easy for me to say tho since there are loads of them in breakers in the UK,.....
