My dad and I built a Y7 block a year ago or so. The Y7 oil pump and crank starve the motor from oil. The oil pump can be bored or you can use a D16Z6 oil pump but the dipstick needs to be drilled into the block like the older style D series motors. And I'd advise not to use the Y7 crank, the mail oil squirters to the bearings are only drilled half way through the crank while the other cranks are drilled straight through. Other than that we found the blocks are the same and just as strong.
damn you have a nice head...
