A long story short I purchased a head i would like to rebuild. The head is from a 1989 honda Civic DX stamped PM3-1. I want it on a 1989 honda CRX Si it is a D16a6 block. The head is cracked on this block and I need a quick solution. Hopefully this is it.

It isnt the optimal way. But time and expense it requires it if possible.

What else do i need?

Timing belt from 89 civic?
Will i have to change my cam?
Can I use the head gasket set from my d16a6 head on this head?

I know it is noob questions but I have so many conflicting answers I only want the right answers.


Thanks guys

 

I dont think this will work, if so you will need: ecu, distributor, head gasket, timing belt, wires, plugs,

 

BTW engine code :D15B2
meaning it will work

 

That is good news thanks but can i use my head gasket set i have for my d16a6 head on it, and also my existing timing belt.

thanks again

 

or should i buy a different set of gaskets for this head they look identical.

Try searching 'd16a6', 'd15b2' and 'head'. You get quite a few results that answer the most of your questions.

 

you might as well rebuild it while your at it theres a kit on ebay for like 184 and it has every thing you need, timing belt, gaskets, bearings, rings , oil pump, ect. You do not want to use your a6 head gasket, get a head gasket corresponding to your head.

 

I was aiming on rebuilding, thanks for your responses.
