I'm using the alternator/belt off my old D16A6. It is thinner than what the Y7 uses but works fine. Everything else is pretty straightforward. You will need to extend the temp sensor wires, and probably rig something for the lower rad hose as it connects at a different angle to the block. At least this was the case on mine.

Yep you take the driver side mount off the old block. I even grinded mine down a bit because it sits much closer to the timing belt but that might just be paranoia...
