I used this gasket when I built a 11:1CR D16A6 non-VTEC. It's also the same gasket as the 92-95, but can be purchased cheaper. The 92-95 P08 version lists for $63.00, while the P2J lists at $33.00 - $30.00 price difference, but same gasket.

Go figure.

 

I wish my local Honda would realize this...they said about $60 for mine. Told my friend to ask specifically for a '96+ HG too for a Y8.

 

thanks for the info. yeah my local honda dealer is the same way,there idiots,i probably know more than they do,maybe i should work there

 

forgot to ask,can we use this for a minime swap? thanks

Yes.

If you're using a non-VTEC block with a VTEC head you will need to remove the oil restrictor orifice from the block - it's a little shiny aluminum piece that's pressed into the block in between the number 2 and 3 cylinders, and it can be removed wih a small slide hammer. It is removed from the deck surface by pulling upward on it.

 

thanks 4 info,yeah already removed oil jet
