hey i have a 88 civic hatch DX. with a d15 non-vtec dual point injection motor. my buddy has a vtec head lying around. i believe a d16y6 i wanna say.. would that fit my motor? thanks

 

well i dunno what a y6 is, but a y8 will work. but i suggest gettin rid of dpfi first.

have you done that conversion yourself? if so was it easy?

 

the conversion is pretty simple.....mainly just swap the manifold and do some wiring....you have to take that mani off to change the head any way.....

 

would a intake mani, ecu, injectors, (and so on) from a EG sedan (sohc d16 non vtec) bolt on to my motor and ecu work?

 

Here are some links that will answer all of your questions if you are scared about messing up your wiring I would suggest contacting rywire.com for 160.00 he will convert your harness if you have all the parts

(look in tech section)

 

or you can go to rywire.com and buy the harness

 

I havn't done it, but I've read the "how to" about 40 times. it's a very easy conversion. My friend just did it on his 90 Civic LX automatic. search for "DPFI to MPFI" on this forum and you should find some good stuff.

Don't forget to switch TPS sensor wires.

Oh, and when you're taking off your intake manifold don't forget the bracket under the manifold. It'll hold that damn thing on there so tight, and you'll wonder why it won't move. Oh, and I'd recommend just removing the head with the manifold on it instead of removing the intake before the head. It's just more headache and frustration to get the intake manifold off.

Besides that, you should be good to go. just take your time with the wiring. it's no fun to have to redo everything 5 times.

 

Dont forget to swap to at least OBD-1 to get the Vtec to work properly, rpm activated switches do **** when your not running the right ECU......well on second thought you could prolly run a Pre-OBD Vtec Ecu (PR3 & PW0) as long as you wired the Vtec solenoid up right.....but again it might not work seeing as how the B series have knock sensors....I would go with OBD-1 personally though

 

has anyone did a vtec head swap on a D15 non vtec before? i have heard that it wont fit my block, and was wondering if it was true or not.
