so this swap cant happen</TD></TR></TABLE>The head bolt patterns are different. There is one bolt hole that doesn't line up. I guess you *might* be able to fix that problem by paying a machine shop a lot of money to redrill that hole, but then you still have to worry about whether or not the valve/piston clearance is ok, if the C/R is ok, what cam pulley/timing belt to use or if it even lines up and is timed correctly, how you would mount a distributor or intake manifold or exhaust manifold, etc etc ...
Do it if you want to and let us know how it turns out, but it's probably going to be a giant PITA! Good luck

Step 1) Do an dpfi to mpfi conversion. (use the search feature for info on this)
Step 2) Swap in a vtec engine, tranny, ecu etc of your choice. (D16Z6 or D16Y8?) (use the search feature for info on this)
Step 3) Drive it. (see your local DMV for info on this)
Done
