I have a d16Y8 and need a new shortblock... Everyone knows the heads are different, but does the D16 have the same shortblock as a d16y7 or D16z6 etc etc....? From my searches, i found that they have the same bore and stroke.. buts that about as much as i could find. I really just need to know if i bought any dseries shortblock, would everything from my d16y8 bolt up?
Thanks!

(P.S. if anyone has one, or a full d16y8 motor.. let me know!)

I think you'll find an answer in here. Also the D-series article in Wikipedia states which heads go with blocks and what rods and stuff you'd need.

the D16 part of D16y7 is the block and the heads name is y7. so YES all the BLOCKS are the same in the d16 family. some may have different compression pistons etc depending on what head it was mated with.
