i have a 91 realtime wagon with a zc dohc in it. everything hooked up fine no problems. if you use a newer d motor you will need to tap holes in the back of the block to bolt the half shaft on.

My friend did a Y8 swap and if he had to do it all over again he would do a ZC. a Z6 or Y8 requires alot of custom crap, whereas a ZC will pop right in fairly simpy. Next step is to put on the greddy turbo...
