Putting d15b7 head onto D15B8....
Will the d15b7 head fit perfectly on the b8? I just want to gain some cheap HP before totally swapping to b-series.

yes, but because you are switching from an 8 valve valvetrain to a 16 valve, you have to switch out the pistons because the stock D15B8 pistons have valve reliefs designed for two valves and not four.

Late 1992/early 1993 Honda used up all the 8v pistons and went to the 16v DX pistons.

don't know bout most people, but a good choice would be a D16Z6 block. internals are better than the 1.5 for sure. connecting rods are are about as skinny as my pinky on the 1.5 motors. i believe the crank is also stronger. in addition, it's designed to withstand a higher RPM range.

Re: (24TEN)
the best d-series to boost is a d16z6 head with d16y8 intake mani with a d16a6 block bc of the steel main caps.
it's a hybrid using stock parts

the going price for an ls tranny is about 200 because they suck
b16 and gsrs around 350-450
b18b long blocks are around 200
i got a complete b18b long block (minus dissy and maifolds) for $75 once
