I have a 1991 crx si. i was wondering if putting a dual cam head say from an 88 89 integra non vtec on my single cam block would b possible (d16). The main concern i have is timing (dual cam head, single cam crank) the cam gears in specific would need 2 b from a zc 1.6liter? Any input would b appreciated

 

Let's pretend for one second that it would actually work....why is this a good idea?

 

The motivation for this project is origanality and 2 say it can b done and braggin rights

 

NO!

have you tried searching, my search works fine.....


and no it will not work and if it did it would run like ***....

 

i read about this being done before out of sheer boredom...and it worked to an extent. It made like 115 Hp for a few hours

 

intresting, where pray tell did u read of this being done?

 

i can't remember off the top of my head, but it was a D16a6 block with the 89 (JDM) Zc head

 

waste of time kid

For the record, it can realistically be done on the 84-87 block and a D16a1 or 1g ZC head...but it's labor intensive. Meaning if you can't do it yourself, its going to cost a lot.

Can it be done on a 88-91? Maybe. But the question is...should it be done? You're going to blow a wad of cash for what will be the same as a stock dohc ZC. And bragging rights? An expensive engine thats mediocre fast is hardly worth bragging about.

 

I believe the user on this board Baseballinmyass did one like that, and the way I see it, it's just spending $2000 to make a 16 second car a 16 second car.

 

yea man, its really not worth the time, money or effort
