Your confusing D series(D16Y8) and B series (B18C1)
Read up on the Honda Engine List here on HS in the Reference Materials forum to get familiarized with Honda's engine codes.
The general rule of thumb is, for the most part, B-series engines are parts-compatible with B-series engines. Likewise for D-series. (This is referring to things like Headers, Intake manifolds, transmissions, cams, etc.)
If your considering building an LS/VTEC, read this thread in the General Tech Articles section on this site.
