Default Del Sol VTech Question

I own a '93 del sol with the SOHC non-vtech ZC motor. My question is can i purchase a SOHC VTech motor head and put that in my car. a friend suggested it but i wasn't sure if i could. If so would i have to replace anything else? Get a VTech controller/gauge?
Thanks a bunch

From what i have seen, if you misspell Vtec as Vtech, you will not get a respond from the helpful people on HT, just the haters...

and yes i have heard you can do the head swap...

Yes you can replace the head with a VTEC head. It's called a mini-me.

ZC block + d16y8 head + d16y8 tranny (steel shift forks) = good mini me

hahaha sorry vtec. i knew that. It was a really loooong day. drove from san fran to san diego with annoying people. my bad

how much HP will the greatest mini me give my car?

and for the haters who wont help if VTEC is mispelled - get over it. mispellings happen. you're not friggin' english teachers.

Thanks a great bunch for those who did help.

SOCH VTECH y0!

Pick up the new Honda Tuning mag, it has a complete write up of how to build a mini-me. Very informative.
