Is that the same head that would have been in the 91 LX? the 1600 engine?
If it is does the above info still apply about the distributor and ECU? I really appreciate the info since my car is sitting in the driveway now after it quit running while I was driving it. Probably did braek the cam belt or at least it might have jumped time. If I need a new head this is certainly the time to consider a swap. Thanks Alex |

Try to do a little searching and reading. This topic has literally been covered over 100 times.

yeah have done a lot of searching but have found more questions than answers and a lot of contradictory info.
So I'd like to see if I can get some info together. Alex |

What's confusing about a VTEC head, an MPFI conversion, a D16Z6/Y8 timing belt, and a D16Y7/Y8 cam gear? If you want info about doing an OBDI conversion, search the other EF forum for both "OBDI" (no quotation marks) and my user name.

Blanco, if you are still following this thread, I'd like to ask your opinion.
I have this engine: D15B2 And if my motor needs a head (likely) I'd like to install one from this motor: ] D16A8 I'd like to keep the motor OBD0 and get the Boomslang wiring harness to do the MPFI conversion. Obviously I would need the head, intake, injectors, and ECU What else would I need? But more importantaly, is this a conversion you would advise? Thanks for your time and advise. alex |

You can't put a DOHC head on a SOHC block.
If you're that concerned about the OBDI conversion, just put a non-VTEC SOHC ZC head on your block with the Y7/Y8 cam gear. That head is the same head you have, which is also the same head on the D16A6, and the cam is slightly more aggressive than the A6 cam. I would also recommend RyWire.com over Boomslang.

That is exactly the info that I needed. I haven't taken my car to the shop yet. It may have jumped time or even could possibly just need a distributor.
But if it needs a head, I will certainly look for the ZC head. Thanks again, Alex |

Got V-tec?

OBd-0 to OBD-1 harness conversion which I make on a daily basis. --->http://hondaswap.com/parts-sale-trad...-dx-si-114851/ OBD-0/obd-1 jumper harness options Hasport/rywire/locash racing all these make nice jumpers and known. obd-1 distributer/p28 ecu would be best but you can also use po6 and reprogram it to run v-tec.

There is a LOT of information to be found on the site, rather than just thread jacking someone else's thread. Good luck.
