z6 crank in y8?

looking to do a d16y8 build but was wondering if i'm able to take a d16z6 crankshaft and install it in the y8 for more oil pressure.

Yes it will fit. Make sure to at least use a new (Genuine Honda) oil pump. You can use the D16z6 pump but it WILL NOT have the hole for the dipstick tube.

D16y8 crankshaft has one oil port while the Z6 has 2 ports. Better oil feed...

As for the pumps, here you go....
