Perhaps the VX belt might work? If I'm not mistaken the Y7 head is geomtrically similar to the VTEC heads and the VX belt is the only D15 VTEC belt out there. I'm almost certain you'll need a adjustable cam gear too. The problem is that I thought the D15 non-VTEC belt should be too short, not too long.

Good luck figuring it out.
