Icon2 swapping intake manifold

so im trying to swap over as many things off my d16y8 motor to the d15d dual v-tec motor from japan. The guy I bought it from screwed me by sending me the wrong motor so im trying to make due and make this motor work. Got the single v-tec swapped over and now i wanted to know will the IM from my d16y8 work/bolt up to the d15b head. I don't want to have to rebuild the old head from the d16 and so thats why i want to swap these. The single v-tec from my D16 bolted right up to the d15 head, so im thinking the manifold will as well. gonna post some pics of the build. Old d16 threw a connecting rod through the bottom end so it's no good. And want to swap and keep it original.

Default Re: swapping intake manifold

Y8 manifold will work.
Try searching. Found this in the faq page after I answered your question.

SOHC Upgrades Explained
Next in line is the intake manifold. For those of you who want OEM, you want the D16Y8, often referred to as the Type R manifold for the D series. It has somewhat short and fat runners and a large chamber to allow the air to distribute to each cylinder properly. The Y8 IM has the common horizontal throttle body. Here is a link Courtesy of VTC_CiViC with a complete how-to: http://www.makuragi.s5.com/civic_99/Y8maniswap/ NOTE: This will not work for the D17's.
