The swap is pretty basic, just like changing a headgasket. It's good to get the larger Y8 intake manifold with the head also, but your stock one will fit alright. Here's a couple tips:
1) You need to get headbolts or headstuds for the Y8 engine.
2) Get yourself a 92-95 Si or EX engine harness
3) Get a P28 engine computer, it plugs right in ready to play
4) There *might* be an oil control jet on top the block ib a hole at the back between the 2 middle cylinders, if it's there pull it out before installing the new head.

Thanks ALL<U></U> for your input!!! I'm gonna pursue the above link, but if anyone has any input on the potential issue for proper timing on this particular swap (as I 've heard may be a problem), post up!
