if u got the money then go b16, if not then zc will b fine...i used to have a zc and i could skool alot of b16'd civics....butt he b16 is the better motor especially if modding ad u can get parts for it easier.

if you got he money b16

the list goes as follows for $$

SOHC zc with si tranny (114hp) pepy little setup
DOHC zc with si tranny (130hp) nice midrange pepy setup

b16 ...better..has alot of top end pulling power..but cost will be alot

if your on a budget then get a sohc with a si tranny it will be a nice littel setup or get teh dohc if you want abit more power

the sohc zc is a nice cheap setup..you gotta remember to get teh si or zc tranny

i was just commenting in another thread how my B16 revs at 4300 in 5th gear at 120kph.... Its a great motor but a gas guzzler on the highway...

imported_zc_hatch 24-Feb-2004 08:16 PM
