I have a 95 civic with a d15b6, i got a d16y8 intake manifold. I need to get a new gasket, but i dont know which to get.
I went to a local autoparts store and asked for a d16y8 intake manifold gasket, and he said that it would not fit my car becuase the holes didnt match with my engine. Any one know what gasket I would need or if that guy is full of crap?

 

you can use hondabond if you dont wanna buy a gasket

 

tell him to blow you. if you have the y8 IM, why wouldnt you use the y8 IM gasket? the manifold swap has been done, and thus the **** lines up UNLESS your IM is from a 99-00 Civic with the air injection holes.

Yea, that guy is full of it. the parts lists at napa and stuff are not always 100%

 

get the Y8 gasket.. just say i need a "96 honda civic ex intake manifold gasket"..

 

would a 98 civic ex im gasket work too?

 

the y8 is the stock engine for the 96-00 ex, so whichever you ask for, engine or car, should be the same.

 

I havn't seen any difference in any of the aftermarket gaskets for any d series engine except the 99-00 Y8.
