will a d16 head sohc bolt on to my d15a3 block. please let me know

 

Yes it wil fit.

 

d16a1 = 1G teg DOHC
d15a3 = 3g civic/1g crx SOHC

d16a1 is not a sohc, so hows this supposed to work?

well their d16 that r sohc. i dont beleive they are d16a1 i think they might b d16z6

 

try it and find out. there were actually rumors tht d16a1 heads worked on d15a3 bocks, may be true.

 

i have tried sohc is difrent from dohc and a d16a1 is dohc first gen integra head also it wil not work with a zc botom end unless it is a dohc zc and it would be simler to building a ls vtec if u wanted to do maciene work

 

It should work. From what ive heard its uses the old stlye block like the DOHC ZC.

Thats the main reason the DOHC zc Head wont fit on a SOHC D series. Completly different block.

I say go for it, like i said it should work. If you dont want to just try.

Go to the Autoparts store, and ask to see the head gaskets from both motors. If they are the same then that will answer all your questions.

Good luck, been wondering the same thing myself

EDIT:

Reading other people posts own me lol.

If what i wrote above is true then No it wont work. Again compair the head gaskets.
