I wanna know more about the ZC engine...
first i heard its a integra engine.. what make? i dont know.. then i hear that its a regular d16z6 engine.. then i heard theres DOHC and theres SOHC so many things .... what is a ZC?..
and what is the 90-91 Si engine?... is that a ZC?

google is your friend

lots of diff ZC configs

DOHC, SOHC, VTEC

came in a few diff makes and models

shlammed

a 90-91 SI engine is a SI engine

SIK_Hatch

that makes lots of sense

mattharper

and all this time i thought a 90-91 si engine WASN'T an si engine

"i hear that its a regular d16z6 engine"

nope, i donno alot about it, but i know thats not true

i believe theres a dohc, sohc, sohc vtec
im pretty sure they came outta old jdm tegs... but im not +ve on that so dont quote me

i know half baked was trying to sell his zc
pm him if youre interested

babuto

just do your homework, there is tons of info on the ZC engine and the ZC transmission(optional),etc. etc.
cost range between $500- $1500 depending on what you like.

i'm not 100% sure but done hte zc engine traditionally have a smaller bore but longer stroke then say the d16z6?? i remember hearing that from someone....

either way for a 4th gen zc are probably the best bang for the buck... aside from maybe a b18a which wouldhave more torque....

dingus8

the stock 4th gen si engien is basically the same as the sohc non vtec zc (looks identical) then there is the DOHc motor which looks identical to the 88-90 integra motor but has different mounts and higher comrpession and better cmas to yeild 130 hp over 113 of the integra...the sohc vtec motor is basically the same as the sohc vtec USdm motor...they are jsut called zc's because that's the designated name for them over there...jsut liek b16

they are all pretty much the same as the their usdm counter parts same block but have small diferences mainly the DOHC

Hey *****

Always wanted to say that...

You prolly are considering a DOHC ZC.

OBD0 has Creamy harness plugs..

OBD1 Grey harness plugs..

The ZC DOHC was offered in a few JDM 4th and 5th gen models..

Land Rover even used one in a vehicle in the UK.

PULOVR

Don't forget they also came w/fuel injection, and without.

ZC voila!

Now I have a question.

Does that ZC line up with the mounts in the 88-91 Civics?

Or do you need B-series mounts to put it in?

dingus8

uses stock mounts

imported_dented dx

stock mounts but if your going to do a swap, change the bushings! you'll thank yourself later i encourage it 100%

whats the actual engine code on this that looks very much like a LS, it this just a JDM ls motor? b18b

imported_dented dx

mine says ZC on the block, its basically a 1.6L LS engine, you could say its the B18b's little brother

Quick_CX

ahh gotcha....
