Hey guys hows it going? i got a 00 civic ex coupe with a blown d16y8.

Now im wondering if i could replace my motor with the d16z6 i have on my lawn.

i will be using the y8 tranny, and the y8 manifold.

Thanks alot

 

not in Cali I dont think since the motor is older than the one that came in ur car originally

 

eh, then i better sell this one and get a y8

 

yeah thats ur best bet

You're gonna sell a blown engine? Good luck.

If you want to get rid of it for really cheap let me know, I'll take it off your hands real quick.

But as for the question, yes you can do that swap but you're going to have to do all the OBD changes and **** to make it legal. Your best bet would be get a 00 y8, or a swap.

How about just the block? Hell, what is wrong with it? That's what I should be asking.

 

the block has a hole in it, and it has either sand or salt on the heads, heh

That won't slow me down. Can I have it?......Seriously.

 

yah you can put a d16z6 swap into your 00 ex. It woudlnt be legal but you always do this. You can use just the d16z6 short block since your y8 block has a hole it in. Keep the stock y8 head, tranny, etc and I bet you'll be able to slide as a stock motor. Of course your gonna have to find a way to mount the crank angle sensor.
