Re: QUICK SWAP QUESTION (bacnoonoi)
i'd personally do the dohc zc, the only down side is that it has less aftermarket support in the head but the sohc has a lot of parts available. The bottom ends are the same pretty much internally. I would just get a b16 swap its well worth it in the end no point in swapping if your gonna be running 16's high 15's with d series. A b16 at least runs mid low 15's. Engine only deals are 700 with ecu then to save money get ls trans and axles from a junk yard. Sorry to bash the zc but ive owned both sohc and dohc and b-series wins hands down. I also had a b16 in crx and gsr feels even better in crx I cant imagine what a toda pistoned b20 with gsr bottom end will feel like hopefully low 14's high 13's if lucky. a boosted dohc would be a sleeper though and cheap to maintain.

Re: (KaoticSnow)
it depends on what you want the motor for speed? reliability? how much power are you wanting to make!
if you have enough money for b16 swap I would rather buy a dohc zc build it a bit and boost it...! i think b16 swaps cost to much. nice if you have the money but you could make more power out of dohc zc with boost than b16
