Use a d16y8 or d16z6 head and get the tranny and Intake mani too. Search for alot of writeups. Good luck.

This will not work.

I suggest that you start using the search feature before you post. It will make your life alot easier here on Honda-Tech

You can make it work. Just be sure to use lots and lots of copper spray.

Haha, yeah. When you're done, try the water injection for huge horsepower gains. Just run your windshield washer fluid lines straight into your intake. Jump in the car, take her to 5k RPM, and pull that left-side handle back and smoke vettes!
