d16z6 head d16y8 block

[kpsycho]

FINALLY. after several months im gonna have enough money to get my car up and running again.. im sick of walking BLAHHH

so i need some stuff done.

i have a d16y8 block in my closet. and the busted z6 in my car.
im gonna put the z6 head on the y8 block (hopefully the head is ok. think its spun bearing thats the problem though gonna find out soon hopefully for sure)

now i need to figure out how im gonna get everything thrown together. do you guys think ill need to get both the head and block machined to mach or should they be ok?

and putting the z6 head on y8 block will work but not sure what all extra stuff ill have to do. any of yall have a clue.

list of stuff as of current:

replace valve stem seals on z6 head.
attach y8 mani with b20 tb to head.
take everything from z6 block and swap over to y8 block. and get everything in and running.
and new throw out bearing.
gasket kit



hopefully within the next month ill have everything up and running though.


i need zee help i must not be walking to work through snow. and you have no idea how much i miss my civic. i started it up and drove it behind my appartments and i wanted to cry.... sigh.:(
