Default piston swap

Ive got a set of d16a1 rods and pistons, wich are the same as zc??, can i just do a direct swap into a d16y8, i think they should just drop in!!! same bore and stroke??

That should make for some crazy compression!!

You might aswell get a new head gasket, and hone the engine. GL
