Default will a d16y8 manifold work for an MPFI swap?

I have the SWAP done but fucked up my fuel rail. I can't find a fuel rail for the d16a6 manifold but I do have a y8 manifold. I wasnt sure if the whole manifold would bolt up to the d15b2 or not.

Yes, but some minor modifications will be needed of course.

- If post 97, you will need to fill in the Air Holes at the mating surface or you will have a vacuum leak to end all leaks.
- The A6 throttle body will not bolt on, so you will need to use either the Y8 throttle body or source another throttle body from any 92-00 D/B/H Series motor.

Ok, but you'll still want to switch over your fuel injectors, make sure the air injection holes are not present or filled in, and provide a mounting location for you IAT as the D16Y8 doesn't have the IAT on the manifold but in the intake tract.
