Default Is a D16a6 compatible with a P2J-7

Hi, I recently purchased a 1991 civic DX and the owner had pulled the engine and was planning to build a new engine with a D16a6 bottom end and a P2J-7 top end. Are these two compatable??

No. Use a p08 head or a p2p.

Ok, but will the P2J-7 head still work with the D16a6 block?

You've got a ton of research and reading to do.

I absolutely do, and I know that they are comparable I just want reassurance.

Not comparable to the heads I said you should use.
