run, don't walk, from any of the 8v heads . . . they are junk and a complete waste of time.
b8s don't even have roller rockers like the b6s did.
Keep the y7 head and have it milled a bunch if you want to raise compression that way

Then someone, somewhere along the way swapped to another head before you got the motor.
Check the code on the head on the exhaust side.

D15b6- PM8 CX
D15b7- PM9 DX
D15b8- PM8 CX
D15z1- PO7 VX
D16a6- PM3 Si
D16z6- PO8 EX
D16y5- P2J VX
D16y7- P2F DX
D16y8- P2J EX

Re: D16y7 with d15b8 head
It would fit and work just fine. The only differences I know of revolve around the relocation of the spark plug to enter from the exhaust side and the spark plug boss being changed from part of the casting before 1995 to the metal shield the VTEC heads have/had.
From what I've seen, the ports in the non-vtec heads look the same but I don't have any besides a pm3 here in front of me

It's good to know the old B2 is the same head.
