Help with mini-me swap
I have a D15B7 95 hatch, and have been given a 97 D16Y8 engine with bad bottom end.
I am thinking about putting the head on my 1.5 engine.
Every thread I read leaves some info out or gives different parts.
Can I do the swap and still have close to stock compression so as to buy regular gas.
Also, which cam gear and belt really works right.
I'm looking for a little more power with the same reliabilty and be able to run regular gas.
Any help would be great.

Re: Help with mini-me swap
I've read that the Z6 head gasket is thicker than the Y8. I guess that's the one to use.
Any opinions on timing belt and cam gear?
Anyone?
