when I did my buddy's z6 head swap onto his y8 motor I ended up having to modify the y8 dizzy by making the holes bigger and we could only get it bolted on with one bolt. We had a z6 dizzy to use, but we couldn't figure out how to swap the internals out so it could bolt up to the wiring harness on the newer civic. BTW does anybody know how to swap out the internals?

yeah like SOHC_MSHUE said, we had mine held on by only one bolt only because the idiot that sold me my "complete" z6 dizzy forgot to put in the rotor in there and charged me $50.00 but thats besides the point, we had to modify the y8 dizzy to fit on the z6 head but it worked and i was still able to get the igition timing right.. but i would not reccomend that stunt to any one good luck
