Dohc zc..Completly bolt in..All you have to do is switch a couple wires on the distributor ..You keep your stock ecu,tranny,wiring,etc..
You can get a zc ecu or 88-89 integra ecu to take advantage of the zc..
It gives 130ps like 127hp and can be had for $500 from hmotorsonline.com
Edit :: I see you're on canada..Shipping is gonna be a bitch unless you know a place up there

Do a d16z6 and put a JDM d15 vtec cam in it. It should easily make the same if not more power then the DOHC zc with that cam. ZC tranny would be good too. Good gearing. Then go with an ATS 4.9 final drive. Good cost effective parts.
