high compression mini me?????
i have a high compression d16a6, i want vtec, and i can get a y8 head, with my domed pistons i dont know if i will have sufficient valve clearance. does any one know off hand if this insanity will work? if it does this will probably add 20 - 30 horsepower. any input is appreciated.
thanks

with my high comression i have to wory about vale reliefs in the pistons, and i dont know if the angles are the dame from the a6 head to the y8 head. and i know that i will be abel to run a hell of a lot better than a 16.3. with the high compression i ran a 16.2 on bald tires, i smoked my tires through 2nd gear.

Anyhow, if you were to put a Y8 head on your a6 block with those pistons you will have a compresson around 13:1
Good luck even running pump gas with compresson like that, I would clay the engine for clearences, god knows if the valves will hit or not, especially when vtec kicks in.

u might not gain too much power doing that. U have higher compression meaning more power. and if u add a y8 head and lower compression you might just be making the same power but with vtec. see what im getting at?
