U need more then that I built my 97 hatchback y8 u need do ur research it's not a mini y8 if u don't do it right y8 manifold y8 ecmu n harness y8 throttle body y8 fuel rail y8 injectors
@@courtneylittle9205 well for an n/a 500$ build gaining 50hp was not bad, and I did have a skunk 2 y8 mani, and rewired what needed to be rewired! So yeah it was a mini me. Y7 block, z6 crank, y8 built head
How did it run did it feal better then stock? I know you where going from non vtec. I'm doing similar build but y7 block, y5 head, pm6 pistons, 2 layer y8 head gasket, .010 shaved head. I'm looking at around 10.8:1 This is going in a EK hatch as my new daily. Alots getting swaped from my HX coupe. I'm going for better mpgs sense I drive alot for work. It's getting pared onto a vx/cx trans, so Im not sure if I'll really feel the difference because the gears are so damn tall. That's why I was wondering if you felt any difference in torque. I'm expirementing with a couple things 8 pound fly wheel lmao I might hate it. Light weight crank pulley.Crank walk lol Adjustable cam gear, I'm hoping to advance it a little and bring the power band down a little to make more torque down low for the highway cruising. Hatch is cut up a little Stripped but still looks relatively stock. I was going to put a turbod motor in it, but I bought a EG
Can you use a d15 belt with the d16 head or do you have to get a d16 belt ? Also do you have have to use ARP head studs or can you just use back the D16 head studs in the d15 block
I'm about to start building mine, throwing high compression pistons in it, stainless steel flat valves, arp head and rod bolts and a y8 head

Very cool man
What compression did you calculate for that motor ?
Getting better mpgs? Lol
I calculated just under 10:1. Not better mpg lol because VTEC 😅
What d16y8 head you use to swap
Did ur mini me swap ever pass smog?? Please let me know
Yessir. I had to change the O2 sensors and I still get a CEL occasionally but it does pass. What's yours doing?
Oh koo I have to change my 02 sensor out to its throwing me that code.
Great video! What power goals you have and what type of clutch?
Not trying to get crazy. Stock head and ecu, just want more fun on the daily. I did a stage 2 exedy clutch from eBay.
