are they the same?!

somebody post a pic plz

 

is is that hard question?

 

the y7, y8, and y5 all share the same shortblock

 

ok i'm putting a d15b vtec head on the d16y7 block, which timing belt i should use?

 

check the faq

 

i did, but all they talked about is the diffrent

 

well if the jdm d15b vtec head that you are using, that head is the same head as the usdm d16z6 head. there is a writeup on that in the faq. if its the d15 vtec-e head, then I dont know. hope this helps

 

yes its a jdm vtec d15b, and i found the write up but i cant see it, they wont let me

 

a little of subject. but cant you use isuzu pistons in one of the d series engines for a boost in compression?

 

u mean susuki vitara pistons, not isuzu, i dont want low compression i wanna cheap 20 HP more on my lx civic untill i have enough money for a K swap

 

all those pistons are the same, ignition timing will in fact never be correct

 

why?

 

ill check the EPC tommorrow after i finish writing this POS 6 page essay

X2.

 

Y7 and Y8 pistons are not the same. Look up the part # and you will see that they are different.

 

y8 has a little higher compression due to the head.
