Iv got a d15 non vtec engine in my 92 si hatch with a blown head gasket.
now what im wondering is would a d16y8 vtec or d15b vtec head fit on my block?
since i gotta remove my head to fix the problem and my car is already wired for vtec should i go for the upgrade?

or should i just do a full vtec swap?

Thanks

98 Jeep Cherokee 2 door - little lift with 31s 4.0 5 speed
77 Chevrolet C10 - Mild 350/350 combo - lowered a little

- Mon Mar 14, 2011 4:04 am #243793 yea its a d15b7
would i need a y8 intake mani or would i be able to use mine?
thanks for the help

- Mon Mar 14, 2011 4:06 am #243794 you would be better off using the y8 manifold they flow very well compared to other d series manifolds

- Mon Mar 14, 2011 4:11 am #243796 will my harness plug in perfectly with the new head and intake mani
