D15 cylinder head question
Hey there. I own a 92 CX civic with the anemic d15b8 8 valve motor
. Before i can get the funds for a b18c motor swap im looking for any upgrade i can do to boost horsepower without spending money. Coincidentaly I have a 16 valve D15 head laying around in the garage that i rebuilt as a project. It is polished and shaved plus the valve guides have been replaced. So i was thinking that by swaping the heads i could gain some high end power. Would this work?I hope the head bolts in, its the same block right? The only part i would have to change is the ECU right? Anyone ever done this? Or seen it done? Is it worth it? Thanx in advance.

yep you can do it, herd it gains around 10-20 HP, you need the ECU, and some maybe wireing, but itll work, cause its same block, just like a mini-me swap.
