Use the Y8 manifold opposed to the Y7, it's better.

As far as distributors go...I may be wrong here but I thought the OBD-I VTEC dizzy's didn't bolt in to the rest of the 5th/6th generation bolt patterns.

the y8 would go well with a eg...stock for stock you'll be quicker than any ej8/ej1 thats forsure.

My buddies rex has the stock a6 (bone stock), it pulls alot harder than my ej8 (stock). Weight plays a big roll.
