head swap
Will it fit if I put an D16Y7 head into my D15b8 block? any mods need to be done?
Would i gain any HP?
will The D16Y7 dizzy bolt up to the D15B8 head with no mods to the dizzy?

Re: head swap
no you have to use the dizzy that came with the head. you will gain a tad bit. you have to use a d16 timing belt and new head gasket and thats it...good luck..alot of work for nothing..at least find a vtec head to put on and pain the valve cover white

Re: head swap
You need 1 head stud for the Y7 (or just a '96-'00 D-series in general).
For the Y7 distributor on the B8 head, no. It will physically bolt on to the head, but the plug is different. The '92-'95 Civics have a 2 plug distributor, were the '96-'00 Civics have 1 plug distributors. On top of that, the '96-'98 distributor has different wiring than the '99-'00 distributors.
