Re: d15b7 w/ mods or mini-me
haha yep. z6 > b7
but... you have to consider the miles on the b7. if its fairly high, and most are, you risk blowing through the rings after slapping on a newer cylinder head. people warned me about this when i did an a6/y8, but i went ahead with it anyway. sure enough a few hundred miles later i was blowing out blue smoke and cyl 2 had 60 psi of compression. looking back on it now i wouldn't of wasted the money on the mini-me, and just saved it towards an engine swap.

I've had the mini-me in my car before and it was actually a pretty strong motor as SOHC motors go. It was a lot of fun and won me quite a few autocrosses, I would go that route.

Re: d15b7 w/ mods or mini-me
I have a question I have a 95 honda d15b7 and am rebuilding it to do a min me swap, But have some questions about the rebuild. I am going to use the stock d15b7 block and crank and putting in stock d16a1 pistons in and use the origanal rods from the d15b7, and put a d16z6 head to raise the compresion to 10:1 or 11:1.But the question i have is will the pistons fit and what the compression will be when i am all done and most of all will it work....
