I finally talk to some guy about a Zc engine..
He said he would sell it to me for 200 with no
tranny. Is this a fair price...
Suggestions....Thanks

 

If it is the SOHC, its about right + or - 30, if it is a DOHC ZC (Not a D16A1) that is a great price

 

sounds good to me...

i spent $455 on one with tranny and complete everything but i got damn lucky. And all the website prices i've seen have been at least $500 for just the engine minus wiring harness and tranny

 

Word on the street is that make sure that motor isnt messed up before you buy it. I had a friend that went through 3 zc's he bought from "some guy" that were all messed up. Not tryin to scared you but since you dont know the motors history or know/see it running in a car you are taking a risk. Just be sure on the buy or make up some sorta contract with the guy. Also take the valve cover off and check out how clean the head is. that says alot about a motor.

 

Yea...the only thing is that this guy is swapping his Zc
with a b16a now..My friend that knows this guy said that
it was running..So good price or what????

 

whats the mileage on it? Like the other guys asked is it a DOHC zc or SOHC zc? Check that out and also be sure to check the stamp on the block. If it is a dohc zc make sures its the black top and not the brown top. Good luck
