Ok, my oilpan is in a fight with my header.
I just removed the headers from a d16z6(oem ones) and instaled them in a d14a1 and to my surprise.. it won't fit!!
The header doesn't have enough clearance and the side of the oilpan hits it, and because of that it won't even bolt on.
So, from what i've concluded the oilpan's are different also, since the d14a1 is wider at the bottom.
It would be a very nice upgrade because:
:arrow: It's a 4-2-1 instead of 4-1
:arrow: It already has the fitting for a o2 sensor
:arrow: It has larger tubing
:arrow: It will look much nicer together with my Sir oem middle pipe and my decat tube
:arrow: It will have the same size flange (bigger) as the decat tube, and won't leak all the time like my 4-1 small flange header.
Now, since I can't (won't) be defeated my question is this:
:arrow: Can a oilpan from a d16a6 or d16z6 fit in a low deck small journal engine? (d14, d13, d15)
I'm so tempted to smack that bitch down with a hammer until the header fits.. :rl:
