what all do i need for the swap for an ef?? im kinda confused because this is my first honda that i will be swapping. i already posted this but i was looking for more solutions and answers.

thanx

 

first the yb is not an engine. The ones I know of are the d16y7 and d16y8. plz clarify? kthx

 

willing to be the ment y8

 

odb-1 conversion.....mpfi conversion unless already have......choose what tranny u wanna go with....as hydraulic tranny might be a PITA to adapt

 

yeah sorry about that it is a y8. i was kinda drunk. but yeah as far as a hydro tranny what all would i need for that.

 

i've always heard that the y8's have a bad oiling problem and the bottom end tends to go fairly quick,why not a z6 or hell a built a6

 

i have a cammed a6 in my ef and i can keep up with my friends teg that runs low 15s on the 1/4 ... i havent run mine yet but it rips pretty descent for what it is

 

Thers nothing wrong with the y8, i swapped one into my crx and installed a home made turbo kit i put together myself, i have been running a consistent 9psi since june and have been driving hard with no problems. a y8 swap is pretty straight forward, the easiest way is to use the crx si tranny, distributor, injectors, and ecu. Keep the y8 intake manifold, all the sensors hook up, the only modification is extending the Map sensor plug from the firewall to the throttle body. everything is pretty straight forward.

 

cool cool thanks for the advice. my friend is selling a 2001 ls head and i can get the rest for fairly cheap. how hard would all the swap be on an ef for that??

 

if this is your first motor swap i would juss go with a single vtec swap, an ls involves alot more time and money. if you want to make more power on the y8 just boost it.
