D16A6 into 6th Gen? Crank Sensor A Problem??

[rfrumusa01]

So I have a D16A6 short block that I was hoping to toss into my EK for a daily driver, but I'm concerned about the crank sensor. Is this swap even possible? Where does the crank sensor mount and can I transfer it to the A6?

It mounts on the Y5/7/8 oil pump, so you would have to swap over the pump, but then you would have 2 dipstick holes.

just get an obd2/1 conversion harness and a p06 ecu.
keep your y8 intake and exhaust manifolds.

it's a ckf sensor on the oil pump. easy to bypass
