hey guys,
I'm working on my friend's 94 civic ex right now and had a few questions. The guy we bought it from said it was a y8 swap, but the block is stamped with a z6 and the upper engine plastic says y8 (the one that covers the cam gear)

1. How do I identify what the head is since the block has already been identified?

2. Is there a difference in the amount of teeth of the timing belt between the z6 and y8?

3. Are the z6 and y8 civic waterpumps the same?

 

anyone?

1. The Z6 head is stamped P08 over the exhaust ports. I'm not sure what the Y8 is, it's probably something along the lines of P2P (the ecu)

2. No they both should have 104 teeth

3. Probably, but i'm not 100% sure.

 

y8 head is stamped p2j and the timing belts are the same. 104 teeth. which also makes the water pump the same.
