D17A2 SOHC to DOHC Swap
I was wanting to know if you can swap heads from a B series to a D series. It would make sense if you could, since they are just SOHC and DOHC versions of each other. In short, I want to put B series heads on a D series

They are completely different. The only similarity between D series and B series engines is that Honda makes them.

Re: D17A2 SOHC to DOHC Swap
Then how do I get dual cams without a complete engine swap?

You don’t. The only DOHC D was the ZC and they’re completely different again.
