Default can anything be done to a d16y7?

all this sohc talk has been mainly focused on the a6/b7, z6, and the y8... but what about the y7? from what ive heard, the y7 head is crap compared to the a6 head, and everyone keep saying to swap the y7 head with a y8, but i want to stay non-vtec.... is there any hope for the y7 head?

send an im to builthatch. he used to have pretty mean d16y7 setup with nos, but now has a y8 setup.

edit: check out this site: http://pub143.ezboard.com/bhondadseries it's a board for d series. mistabone, a member here and there, would also be a good person to talk to. take that!
