who summoned the ZC king?

I am here now and will be happy to answer all of your questions....yes VTEC ZC exists, it's in my car parked outside

I know of multiple threads that not only discuss this, but also discuss the minor differences in the motors, interchangable part #'s, and boosting information.

Let's not forget the carb'd ZC DOHC engine either since we're talking ZC!

Also there was a euro-spec ZC built for Rover (car maker) that's supposed to be torquey, but I've never seen one in person, but they do exist. I cannot recall the block code now though...
