Default head swap, anyone?

Has anyone done the d16y7 head swap to a d16y8 for the sake of vtec? How much did it cost? what do you need to fully do the swap? did a search couldn't find anything. Peace.

that swap is often times called a mini-me swap. if you search this forum, you'll find quite a few threads on it. it seems to be a relatively easy process. i'm thinking about doing the same.

if you do a search, also search the archived threads. i found this link: http://www.geocities.com/crx288/d16z6swap.html, it's on a crx, but the process should be the same.
