    Default SOHC to DOHC swap, does fuel pump need to be changed?

    I was wondering two things:

    1)if my car came with a D16Z6 and there is a b18c1 now, does the fuel pump need to be changed as well?

    2)if it does, and there is no difference, how do i know the difference between the two pumps?

    thanksss

    not worth the time money if your not going to have extras to really require more fuel.

    I've done numerous swap and didn't change the pump. If fuel pressure is fine, then your fine. Now if the car had a ton of miles on it, I would change it for good measure.

    agree isnt nothing like a new pump over one that is 15+ years old and 200k miles
