Are D15 and D16 rods the same?
The rod bearings on a D16 are 48mm, on any D15 you can get your hands on they are 45mm so the rods will not fit. They are also a different length I believe because the D15 block is slightly less high than the D16 block.
Can I put a D15 head on a D16 block?
It’s the same head casting, The d16 cam is different, which is what you need to keep in order for the timing to be right. If you keep the d15 cam, which is garbage, then it will be 4.5 degrees out of time and it will be weaker.
Are all D series crankshaft the same?
the d16 cranks are all the same. any d17 or d15 crank will be different, and you probably wouldnt want to use one of them in a y8 blcok anyway. is the y7 running ok now?
Are all D15 rods the same?
There are engines that use the later style big rod end and later rods (mainly JDM D15), a lot boils down to the piston. The deck heights are the same of 207mm… So, NO – they aren’t all the same.
Are all D16 rods the same?
* D16 and D17 rods all have the same major dimensions. The D15 rod is shorter (in general) and has a smaller bearing size, although the wrist pin bore is the same. * D15Z1 and D15B motors have a rod that is the same length as a D16.
Can you put AB Series head on ad series block?
as stated above no!
What’s the difference between D15 and D16 Pistons?
Most people do that to D16s to raise compression, but you’re doing turbo- and the compression height on the D15 pistons is higher than the D16 pistons- so you lose compression if you install D16 pistons into your D15 (even the DOHC ZC pistons I believe). “The LS rods are longer than your D15 rods… they only match up to the D16 block’s geometry.
What’s the difference between Honda D15 and D16?
Yes it has a different crankshaft 3. Yes it has different pistons 4. Yes ZC and D16 pistons will fit inside the D15 5. Yes the sleeve (wall) thickness is the same The D15 has a shorter stroke than the D16: 84.5mm compared to 90mm. The rods are also shorter, 134mm for the D15 (except D15Z1) and 137mm for the D16.
Can you put ZC Pistons in a D15 block?
Yes, if you’re talking about sleeve thickness. The LS rods are longer than your D15 rods… they only match up to the D16 block’s geometry. Why do you want to put ZC or D16A6 pistons in your D15?
What’s the compression height of a Honda D15B2?
Stock D15B2 pistons have a compression height of 30mm. The 92-95 VS pistons have a compression height of about 27mm. The 01+ Civic pistons are also 27mm. Using those shorter compression height pistons and LS rods would theoretically work in your D15- as long as the rods will fit the crank.
