I have a PM-6 intake manny laying around my garage and the intake is basically all I need to finish up my D16A1 (brown top) swap into my 91 civic dx hatch. Is it possible to mod this manny to fit my bolt pattern or maybe get an adapter plate? And if so does anyone know where I could find an adapter?

 

Just did some searching...The intake manny I have is from a 92-95 civic si which had the D16Z6 SOHC. I found an adapter plate by ZCspeed now all I need to know is if that manifold is actually going to work for my D16A1 or not and if the wiring harness that came with that manny will work or not.

 

If you dont have this installed yet have fun with the custom mounts! this swap isnt worth the time effort or anything inbetween.

 

i agree - especially trying to swap the 113 hp, 9.3:1 compression "browntop" D16A1, which is from the 86-87 Integra - in addition to needing to fabricate custom mounts, dealing with transmission bolt pattern, different starter mount, etc., the 86-87 "browntop" used a vacuum advance ignition system, not electronic advance like the 88-89 "blacktop" D16A1 - the 88-89 distributor will not bolt onto the 86-87 head - trying to use the 86-87 will be a lot of work

as for the D16Z6 intake manifold, yes, it would work with the adapter plate, however, it would be a whole lot cheaper just to buy a used 88-89 D16A1 intake manifold from a salvage yard

 

The motor is already in. All I have to do is get the intake manny and plug in the harness. Thanks for the help guys. And what was that about the dizzy? Just in case I run into a problem there.

 

I did the swap in a 90 hf with the 89 engine. I grinded off the back tranny bolt hole on the engine and its got one less bolt but it fits from there with the si starter, trans, flywheel and clutch. I had to fab one engine mount no biggie, some wiring and removal of some vacuum sensors and useless lines and its been a great engine since..
