I got a zc dohc for 200 bucks it runs great but my valve cover has the honda sign at the top (by the intake manifold) instead of the bottom my friend told me he has more power(honda sign at the bottomexhaust manifold side) what the hell is the difference???? help me PLease!!

 

No difference to my knowledge.

 

when the h is on the top side it's jdm zc and when it came on the bottom side its the usdm integra d16

 

Are the valve covers interchangeable between the DOHC ZC and the D16A1?

 

does the jdm zc come with more power???

 

every thing jdm comes with more power

If that's true (and I can't say whether it is or not), then the JDM DOHC ZC should be more powerful. The twin-cam ZC is rated right around 130hp, and the D16A1 DOHC Integra motor is rated at around 118hp.

More important (and reliable) info on what motor you've actually got should tell the true tale; what's the engine number on the block say? If it says "D16A1", it's a 1G 'Teg engine; if it says "ZC", it's.... well, a ZC.

But for $200, if it fits in your car and runs well, who cares if he has more power? You have more money, and money can buy power.
