CivGurl96 Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 hey, Im pretty new with the whole Honda scene since I recently bought a 96 and decided to do a 99-00 conversion. As far as under the hood goes, I'm just trying to swap the head, since the one I have on the motor now is a piece of crap. I was wondering should I just go with a d16y8 vtec swap or are there other options that would benefit me more? any advice would help me lots thnx!

mycarsux Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 Whats wrong with your head now? I would just keep a y8 head on it. I think he wants to put a y8 head on it. I suggest swapping in a B16A2/3. Should bolt right in, right? Someone correct me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 He is asking about a $300 (max) headswap and you suggest a $2,500 engine swap. I don't get it. Why is your head a piece of crap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O that sounds like that would work great... is a b16a2/3 cylinder head pretty pricey or does it run about 250 300? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EH6TunerDaniel Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 He was suggesting a whole motor swap, not just the head. That would involve more cash and more work. What is wrong with the head on your motor now? Is it like cracked or you just want a y8 head? If you do it, get the y8 head, IM complete with sensors and preferably throttle body, and get a 99-00 ex exhaust manifold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
