One of the corner head bolt holes is off by about 1/4". I guess I should be more specific and say for all 88+ USDM Civic/CRX sohc d-series". The JDM dohc ZC shares its head bolt pattern with the USDM dohc D16A1 from 86-89 Integras, the ?DM D16A3, the EDM dohc D16A8/9, and also the sohc head from a 84-87 Civic/CRX. I'm not saying that it would work, just that it has the same head bolt pattern. So in truth, there IS a sohc head that shares the same head bolt pattern as the JDM dohc ZC, but I don't think anyone has ever done this swap because there's no point. It would just be a very choked and weak ZC. Just curious, why would you want to put a sohc head on a dohc block?
