I have a d16y7 with a y8 intake manifold in a 97 ek im parting out. my 98 ek is my daily with no motor. then i got a y7 head with a d16z6 block with z6 intake manifold. outta all these parts how can i combine these to make a good running single cam?

 

This is simple. Combine the D16Y7 block and the D16Y7 head with the D16Y8 intake manifold. You will have a good running single cam assuming your components are in good order, and you do it right.

Google provided a plethora of write ups on how to install the Y8 Intake manifold on to the Y7 head.

Welcome to Honda Tech

 

well ive chosen to go complete y7 motor with y8 intake manifold. do u know any good performance chips?

 

Just wondering as to why you want the y7 head and not a z6 or y8 head to have Vtec?

 

All of the above; waste of time. And there are no such things as "performance chips".

 

Just sell the whole car OP by single cam build i hope you mean just something that "runs" and by no means are planning to dump money into a D16Y7

 

How did we go from "a good running single cam" to a "performance" D series motor? If you want performance then you are attempting to find it with the wrong motor.

Nonsense have you not seen the Performance Chip +30 horsepower ads?
