i was plannin on doin a mini me swap an was curios on which head would give me more power a d16z6 or a d16y8 head????

 

if its a 98 hatchback do a Y8 head...MUCH MUCH easier...plus the Y8 head has a better intake manifold as well as a smaller combustion chamber (higher compression)

 

Z6 flow better
not sure about power gain compare to y8 though

The Y8 IM is the "Type R" IM of the D.

yeah but then you have to worry aobut the whole OBD2-&gt;OBD1 bullshit whereas with the Y8 you can use the stock distributor, IM, exhaust manifold, and everything else

 

have any of you ever done this swap before and if so do u have dyno sheets to show power gain

 

ne way thanks for the help
