it will fit, but the cx head only has eight valves. the dx model comes with a 16 valve head. id say your best bit is to upgrade to an multipoint injection system.

I dont think you can..The cx head is 8 valve and the pistons in 89 hatch have valve reliefs made for 16 valve heads..

if your friend has a z6 head i would put that on over the cx head, and you know for a fact that it will fit and have more power

it doesn't i just dont feel like changing the manifold it self to a multiport.. the injectors are bad on the dual port.. sincei got all the parts to do the swap ithought i might as well just wanted to know if it fits or not so it wouldn't be a waist of my time
