Oil Pan Size
I am planning to go turbo soon but I cannot afford a long down time. Part of my plan is to buy a used oil pan and install the oil return pipe until I am ready to install the turbo. Will a oil pan from a 1991 Honda Civic DX fit my 1994 D16Z6 engine?
Thanks in advance for all your help.

Re:Oil Pan Size
The D16Z6 has a deeper oil pan than the D16A6/b2. The DX pan will still fit, but you will have to swap oil pump pick-ups.
I learned the hard way. I had a A6 pan tapped and waiting, then.. No fit.. Had to bust the JB weld out again, and let it sit for another day.
The bolts etc will bolt up, But I'd stick with the Z6 pan as it looks to hold more oil.
