I was told that a 1.6 block and a ZC block were the same. Is this true?
I need to know thanks.

 

LOL, there are quite a few 1.6's, can you be more specific?

true...just like a DOHC head is the same as every other DOHC head.

 

sorry..d16 blocks

 

is that specific enough, 92 and up....
please i need to know

 

If you're referring to the SOHC zc block and a D-series then yea, they're pretty much the same. But you need to be a bit more specific, the way you worded it is entirely to vague.

 

im realy sorry..... DOHC ZC head on a d16 block....1992 and up, non vtec
reason why i ask is because i can get a DOHC zc head, complete manifold, wiring harnest and ecu for 20 bucks

 

i need to know ASAP so i can pay this guy.

 

Regular blocks and zc blocks are different. Different compression. The DOHC ZC uses a stronger rod. The strongest of the D series actually. While a D16 block WILL work with a dohc zc head.. There different. PM7 is a DOHC ZC block. PM6 is SOHC block.. PM7 and Pg7 are the blocks you want to try to get

 

So if i use a a PM6 block i wont get the performance that i should be getting out of a ZC? Ill get a lower compression ratio?

 

The dohc zc head will NOT work on any USDM D16 block except for the D16A1 in 86-89 Integras, which will NOT bolt into any 88+ Civic chassis. One head bolt doesn't line up, and before you ask...NO, it isn't worth it to try and make it fit. Now, if you can't use it would you please email me the guy's contact info so I can buy it? j/k

 

well, there goes that project. LOL. One last question, d16y7 block with a d15b2 head. Is it possible? Im trying to use the parts in my brothers garage, he has everything i need for a mpfi swap too.

 

nevermind found answer at http://www.d-series.org

 

go buy that head i got mine for 200. look at my pics in my garage. i got a d15 but the set up is the same. theres a efw modifactions you need to make but nothing too hard. if you have any questions just ask me.

How can he bolt a dohc head onto a sohc block if the the head bolt pattern is different?!? Didn't you read the post a few above yours telling him that very thing? Unless of course there is some secret you know that we don't. If so, please share it with us.

 

I already explained a million times in my other post how to do it. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1079426

I appreciate the link, but nowhere in that post or in any of your other posts have you described how you resolved the issue of the one head bolt that doesn't line up. And I am 1000% sure that it doesn't (it's off by ~1/4") because I have compared the head gaskets. So if you tell me how you did that you'll get props from me for doing what few others have even dared to attempt.

 

thats why i used the ARP headstuds. with the headstuds, you can get the one on the top left hand corner to move over that 1/4". what i had to do was stack up a few washers, but i attained proper torque, and returned a leak-down test of 3% on that cylinder. so, the seal is good. also, like I said in my thread, i bored the hole out in the head a little so the stud moved over. after all was said and done, it only moved over between 1/32 and 1/16 max. yes it is true you cant use the factory bolt because of this (i tired and the head gasket leaked). but with the ARP studs, it works fine. also, i used jb weld on the threads for all of the head studs. so its not going anywhere.

 

i have the worst luck in the world so im not even gonna attempt to pull that **** off!
I took a look at your pics.....Nice...

 

hey can you email me all the details about the boring? Im at CIVICSIR27@NETZERO.COM thanks
