USDM, you kno ur **** so i have a few questions too lol.

What is the compression on a d15b1 stock?
and with the y8 head, what would that bring it up to.
and where can i find the cheapest rpm activated switch.
What else is needed besides a head gasket and switch to put the y8 head on the b1?

thanks for any help in advance

Well, the y8 head on an a6 block, ups the compression to 10.3:1. I would tell you what the d15 block is, but the compression calculator website is down right now.

Don't waste your time using that POS D15 block. You'll eventually blow out the bottom end if you decide to rev past 7k (on a daily basis).
