ZC questions

Ok, 2 questions...

1- do either of the ZC motors have Vtec

2- has any zc ever been available in a CRX in north america?

I know a guy who is running a ZC (sohc) in a CRX stock car (where swaps aren't allowed) and says he has a letter (from Honda Canada) that says that motor was available in that car here... His fellow competitors are not enthused...

easy swap if you have the tools, cheap and relyable.

the zc vtec is d15b pretty much...

i have also seen a RARE RARE d16a1 obd1 vtec...weird!!! <maybe integra bottom end with vtec head...but it was single cam and the teggys were twin..

sohc zc also comes non vtec, carbed, FI...
the dohc zc comes non vtec 127hp...

rumor takes it sohc zc is 120hp, but I dunno why because when I ripped my apart, it has pm6 pistons, pm6 head, so the difference is in the camshaft itself, making up for the 12hp difference..
