    OBD2 d16y7 into an EF

    Thanks bud, that's exactly what I did and it worked :) Although on a downside, I believe the stock d15b1 catalytic converter is clogged, as it really doesn't seem to have picked up any power. I'll check in on gutting the cat sometime this weekend (work for the next couple days) and see if...

    OBD2 d16y7 into an EF

    Update: I've ran into a bit of an issue. While most of the sensors are the same between the two motors, one of them is different. There is a sensor on the stock D15B1, near the oil pressure sensor/oil filter area under the intake manifold, it appears to be a coolant sensor, but the D16y7 block...

    OBD2 d16y7 into an EF

    I have one other stupid question...I was looking up the differences between the d15b1 and the d16y7 earlier, and it seems to me that putting an engine in that has ~30 more horsepower on the stock ECU could be dangerous. Should the stock ECU be an issue, or can I just counteract it by running...

    OBD2 d16y7 into an EF

    Nice thanks for all of the info guys. I'm going to first try and see if I can't make the stock d15 run a little better. Looks like whoever "rebuilt" the motor probably retarded the cam timing by a tooth, and they really didn't tension the belt properly. Hopefully the oil burning is just...

    OBD2 d16y7 into an EF

    Do I not need to change up the distributor or anything? I don't know if the obd0 d-series distributor will bolt onto the y7 motor or not. I'm mainly wondering about that as well as the wiring harness. Thanks for such a quick reply. - Steven

    OBD2 d16y7 into an EF

    Ok guys, I know this is an unusual swap to ask about, but I just bought an '89 Civic hatchback and it burns oil like a maniac when you go full throttle and is quite sluggish. I'm thinking about swapping the d16y7 that came out of my '96 Civic hatchback (swapped it with an LS-turbo setup)...but...

    OBDII 97 EK swap to B18B1 non-vtec

    I have no answers for questions unfortunately, however I GREATLY appreciate you posting all of your progress. I am getting ready to do the exact same swap...99 b18b1 into a 96 hatch with a d16y7. I had no idea what was involved in the swap as I bought the b18 out of a junkyard car on a whim...
