Yet ANOTHER ZC question
Ok i was looking through http://www.hmotorsonline.coms stock of engines and saw the SOHC ZC
http://www.hmotorsonline.com/s...30018
to me it looks just like the D16a6. Is there a diffrence? it doens't have vtec or anything else so i'd be lead to believe its just a plain D16a6.
Does anyone else think this way?

Re: Yet ANOTHER ZC question (shaun311)
is it noticable more powerful than the D16a6? i mena can you feel the diffrence?
And how hard would it be to swap in? I'd think its just a straight drop in like the D16a6 into an Si

Re: Yet ANOTHER ZC question (mr_valentino20032000)
i would also love some more info on this....
im considering buying a rex with a SOHC zc in it...and the owner thinks it has a newer a6 in it...(the old a6 blew up and it had to be replaced). do any axles or tranny or wiring harnesses need to be changed for this swap?
or could it be done and run well with just a the block and head changed?
one more thing...whats the stock sohc zc redline?

Re: Yet ANOTHER ZC question (mr_valentino20032000)
If the engine it is a good buy, because it is vary similar to the stock si motor and trans, It bolts right in to the si ecm. The ZC is little faster than the D16A6 is stock I think.. I ran down a 90 si hatch. and a Del Sol and a 94 Integra, But now my clutch is worn out, but it still runs good, After a new clutch I'll rut it at the 1/8 mile and really see the truth.

The ZC Engine
In Honda's line-up of engines, perhaps the one which leads to the greatest amount of confusion would be the ZC engine. This engine comes in a wide variety of form.
The ZC engine comes with an engine block that has 4 cylinders, water-cooled, with bore and stroke as 75mm by 90mm, ie an undersquare design. Thus, the capacity of the ZC engine is always 1590cc. The ZC engine comes in various configurations, SOHC, DOHC, carburated as well as fuel-injected. The only configuration that ZC does not come in is in DOHC-VTEC form. The ZC engine is also used in a large variety of models. The list below tries to tie the various configuration of the ZC engine to examples of Honda models and types that they appear in. This list is not intended to be exhaustive.
SOHC twin-carburated
16V SOHC, with dual Keihin carbs mounted side-ways.
Max Power : 105ps.
DA-series Honda Integra RX and ZX.
DC-series Honda Integra ZX.
EG-series Honda Ferio RTX (EH1) with 'realtime' 4WD.
SOHC PGM-Fi
16V SOHC, Programmed Fuel Injection.
Max Power : 120ps.
EF-series Honda Civic 36i (4door).
DA-series Honda Integra RXi and ZXi.
DB/DC-series Honda Integra ZXi.
Revised DB/DC-series Honda Integra, various models, eg Ti, Xi-G, Xi(4WD).
SOHC VTEC PGM-Fi
16V SOHC with VTEC, Programmed Fuel Injection.
Max Power : 130ps.
EG-series Honda Civic Ferio EXi (coded as E-EJ3).
.
DOHC PGM-Fi (First generation)
16V DOHC, Programmed Fuel Injection.
Max Power : 125ps.
1st Generation Honda Civic Si.
1st Generation Honda (coded as E-AS) CRX Si.
1st generation Honda 'Quint' Integra GSi and RSi.
DOHC PGM-Fi (Second generation)
16V DOHC, Programmed Fuel Injection.
Max Power : 130ps.
EF-series Honda Civic (4door and 3door) Si.
EF-series Honda CRX Si (EF7).
EG-series Honda Civic Ferio RTSi (EH1) with 'realtime' 4WD.
The ZC engine also appears in other Honda lines, notably in SOHC PGM-Fi and SOHC Dual-Carb'ed form in the Concerto line-up which was also available for export (Singapore is one country which has this model in its domestic lineup).
Of note is the 1.6l SOHC VTEC PGM-Fi engine as used in the JDM Honda Civic Coupe and various current generation EK-series Civic types although having the same capacity (1590cc) with same bore and stroke is coded D16A instead of ZC.
The same configuration of engine, with matching power output levels, (120ps at the same rpm), is also available in what can best be described as 'lesser' markets for Honda. This engine then often powers the top models for that market. An example is the Malaysian domestic line-up, which for the previous and current generation has a Honda Civic 1.6EXi which is powered by a 120ps 1.6l SOHC PGM-Fi engine but coded as SM16A. Similary, for the equivalent EF-generation, the Malaysian domestic line-up has a top model, the Honda Civic 1.6EX which is powered by a 105ps 1.6l SOHC Dual-Carb'ed engine coded as D16Z1.
