Will a steel oil pan fit the D16Y5?
I cracked a big hole in the original aluminum oil pan,just wondering if I could use the steel oil pan from the 96-00 DX/CX/LX engines because there are aftermarket steel pans for $50 compared to around $200 for aluminum.
I've searched but there are no definant answers.
Thanks in advance.

The pan will fit w/ no problems, but you may just want to double check that the oil pickups clearance is the same.

Thanks for the response.
I'll wait for an answer about the oil pickup clearance as I don't have access to a spare oil pan.

No problem 
Also, you could just use a tape measure and take a measurement of the depths of each pan, if both are similar I'd say you're good to go.
