well first off a y8 is obd2 and a d15b is obd1.
The d15b also comes with a more agressive cam and stronger rods and pistions. Out of the box the d15b is a better engine. not much similar besides they are both SOHC VTEC but you already knew that.

The fuel map on the P08 ECU is a lot better also. If your interested in a D15b SOHC vtec with warranty, PM me.

The 96-00 ones did. The EG ones were basically de-stroked Z6's.

they are similar motors,
but the z6 is more similar to the d15b than the y8 is,
the z6/d15b share the same head/mani's(as previously stated)
while prettymuch everything on the y8 is different...
similar, but not the same.
also the d15b's cam is more aggressive than either the z6 or y8.
I'm starting to wonder why ppl dont swap d15b cams into their z6 for alil more pull,
or use d15b heads for minime swaps more often.
