I want to buy some extractors for my car which has a d16a3 engine out of a 86 integra in it but cannot seem to find any for this engine. I have heard then extractors that for d16a8's will bolt on and only need a little grinding of their ports to make them match up.
I have a gasket for my engine and would like to put it up against a d16a8 one or a set of extractors for that engine to see how much i will have to grind out of the ports.
Does anybody in the wollongong area or nowra area have their extractors off or an old gasket liying around i could compare it to?
If you do could you please PM me so we could meet up and check it out. :cool:
THanks

afaik the bolt pattern / dimensions are the same ( it will "bolt on") I cant say if the internal ports need to be slightly ported to maximise flow tho.
IMO just grab a spare gasket at a wrecker or even pay the $20 froma honda dealer for a new jobby

I got a ZC manifold laying around.

I can put paint on it and make an impression of it and post it to you if you get desperate.
