I need a SOHC wizard to help!!!
Just got this a couple days ago, And got all the parts i need to put it on my y7, Just need to know if im missing anything, and if i can actually put this on my 97 dx... its a 00 y8 manifold.
If you notice in the last pic, the gasket is for a 96-98 y8 manifold, and there is another one that i have, that is for the 99-00... need to know if i can use this manifold.

Re: I need a SOHC wizard to help!!! (Irishweird00)
geez...where did you get such a clean manifold from? i tried to get a y8 and ended up with a z6...now that is just a paper weight
oh, it looks complete to me...the only thing i don't see is the throttle cable from an EX.
EDIT: heres the swap page http://www.makuragi.s5.com/civic_99/Y8maniswap/

Someone told me to plug the holes that go into the fuel injectors, at the top of the manifold with RTV sealant, and then i can use it...

Yes, plug the four small holes into the injectors, and the one in the middle, top part of the flange.

that looks a bit different then a 96-98 IM . No plugging..... was required on the 96-98 except for the cruise control. You can actually use ur y7 TB but swith the TB disk or modifiy it and flip it 180deg (like I did) to make it work .

Re: I need a SOHC wizard to help!!! (kommon_sense)

Re: I need a SOHC wizard to help!!! (kommon_sense)
hmmm...a bseries tb will work on this setup? how about sensors? i thought the y7 tb was a direct swap with the y8...so modifications DO need to be made?

Keep the D-series TB unless there are a lot of mods already on the Y7. If you have a manual trans Y7 with the same idle air motor as this Y8 (two wire) then your Y7 harness should connect right up to this one.

Re: I need a SOHC wizard to help!!! (2000CX)
Are you using the Y8 tb? You do know for the IAC valve there different form the non vtec. I just did a mini me swap a few months back. All you need to do is swap the Y7 and Y8 Tb. Use some kind of gasket and cover the Y8 IAC valve with a gasket and all you need to do is clip everything back on. As for the throttle cable. I just swaped the thingy where the cable hooks up. Swap the Y7 to the Y8 for the throttle cable.

Re: I need a SOHC wizard to help!!! (kwik2nec)
its all set up except the vtec. I still cant figure out how to install the rpm activated switch. Might be getting a fields vtec pretty soon.

That is from a manual because you have the iacv mounted on the back of the IM.
Also, yes, you would need to bore the IM out to use a b-series TB. Nothing an afternoon with a dremel and some sandpaper couldn't fix. I've got a spare y8 IM w/gsr TB sitting on the table. I'll try to remember to take pics of the process when I get around to porting it.

Re: I need a SOHC wizard to help!!! (drunkenbabyseal)
they dx tb, will fit, but won't work right, u need to change how the tb works, use a 92-95 ex tb spring, or a 96-00 tb spring, and move it so it opens the tb, so the cable can fit in it, ur going to have to d hook the dx tb, and move it and make it custom mounted to your fuel rail, look how i have mine.
This is a d16y7
I use the thing that holds it on the right side, and blot it with part of the fuel regulator. It holds nice, and the tb works.

I think there is a torque....but do you think you can get a torque wrench on all of those?? Its not easy....I don't use a torque wrench, although since I have been wrenching for about 10 years now, I can feel it, like calibrated hands.
If you want the spec....its: 23 N-m or 17 ft-lbs
