Default Wondering about d15 vitatra

I am wondering if the Vitaras will fit in a d15b. I had heard that they couldn't but then someone posted on here saying it was done, no questions were answered about it so I assumed it was a lie. Has anyone heard about this?

yes they work fine in the d15b vtec. The stick up slightly but the clearance is okay.

A stock headgasket makes up for it no problem.


Just be careful if you deck the block.

you can't run them with a Y8 head......they will kiss the head, Z6/B7 head and they will be fine.

Or just have .020" taken off the pistons, a table top belt sander will work

The Y8 head is fine. With the stock headgasket there is enough clearance so they don't even rise above the headgasket surface.
