putting a y7 into a 92-95?
 

ok im tossing a y7 into my 94 ex...but im wondering what will need to be swtiched (aside from injectors, dizzy). the motor is currently in a 96 hatch and im not sure if the shift linkage will be the right length. i have or can get back all the 94 d-series mounts if they will work. sorry but i never tried this and have zero time for searching :-\

you need to keep your mounts when i did mine same exact swap the obd1 distributor wouldnt fit so i had to use the obd2 or the y7 one and i had to rewire it just follow the colors and pull the pins out dont cut pretty simple just take the clips off of your old distributor worked fine for me oh yea your shift linkage from your 94 will be fine also

Re: putting a y7 into a 92-95?
 

electronically the obd1 and obd2 dists work the same, so a re-wire and thats all good.

injectors should work also, use obd-2 clips.

is the engine (mainly, the intake mani, from a manual car?)

Re: putting a y7 into a 92-95?
 

yes both cars are manual...the thing is that right now there is a b16 in the 94, so using the shift linkage from that car is out. I was wondering if the 96 one would work. So just re-pinning the y7 dizzy with a obd1 plug will work fine? And all the mounts from the old z6 (that used to be in the 94) will work fine with the y7 right?...ill have to track those down asap

Re: putting a y7 into a 92-95?
 

i was just out comparing the mounts on the y7 and the ones holding my b16 inplace...looks like the mounts for the b16 will be fine...only one way to know for sure.

if you swap a y7 in your eg, try to find a z6 manifold... cause the y7 one sucks balls

Re: putting a y7 into a 92-95?
 

Keep in mind that the Y7 has a 3 wire IAC valve. That may be a problem unless you use a P2E ECU. You would have to swap to a 2 wire unit like a standard Y8 or any Z6.

i know that man, but i dont have one at the moment and i need to get on the road. I dont care about about the iacv either since ill most likely block it off anyway, but thanks for the info. Ill be running my chipped p28, im just concerned about getting the motor in there right now.
