You didn't mention what kind of d15 or d16 you had. I know that the D16Z6 is best all around D series engine. I know the D15Y7 has some oil pump issues. Thats about all I know.

If you're going to boost a SOHC, this is a great thread:

Someone please correct me, but I thought that the D16 came in VTEC and non-VTEC versions but that the D15 was non-VTEC in all of it's forms. Also, I thought that all B16s were VTEC and only the B17 and B18 had non-VTEC versions.

he didnt mean to write b16 as it looks, he meant d16.
