Engine & Internal - d16y8 swap for a DOHC d16a1?

Ok right now I have a d16y8 in my civic, but I found a GREAT deal on an Integra DOHC d16a1...It has less hp and tq stock then the y8 but it is a DOHC and I figured I could do more with it. It's only $142. Is it worth it. I probably wouldn't actually swap it in my car now but maybe buy another body and put it in there after I did a bunch to it. Would it be good as a project engine and can you make them a lot faster? Will a b16 head fit on there...PLEASE HELP

b16 head wont fit. if its for a project car, get a 91 or older and it would be a GREAT swap.

r u crazy buy the time u fix the d16a1 with 113hp. you'll be right were u started thats with 127hp by the d16y8, y not just use that money to fix your ex up

hell yeh bro listen to your fellow hondacivicforum members hook up the ex! but take your time no rush good luck[sm=smiley20.gif]

yea that's what I decided to do. I've got that intake, header, and exhaust. Im getting a crower stage 1 cam within the next week and then an IM and a high flow cat. thanks for the advice....

good luck by the way what is your plans?? turbo or all motor?
