Well, my SOHC ZC arrived from Hmotorsonline, its in great shape, good over all work in packaging/shipping. I got all the parts desrcibed, kinda mad that the wiring harness was cut cause its in great shape, but ohh well. I'll get pics up of it soon, hoping to get it in in the next couple of weeks, but I gotta get that rusty P.O.S. D15 out......damnit. Well more to come.

P.S. I'd like to thank Applebee's for employing me so I could get the money for this swap, hope they dont know I broke the fryer lastnight while I was making extra corn dogs for the crazy mexican guy with the funny eyebrows.

 

nice buy! what model ZC was it? vtec or no? the harness shouldnt matter, just use the one of your current motor

 

non-vtec, I would use my current harness but its pretty fucked, I'll get pics up tomorrow of my porject so you guys can see the calamity that is my backyard and garrage which I have anexed from my family.

 

I knew there was a dohc zc, a sohc vtec zc, but I didnt know there was a sohc non-vtec zc

Yup, all 3. I recently put a sohc in my dx...and I also have a dohc in my ex, both are very easy swaps. And for idiotboy...you have to use your dx harness...the sohc zc one wouldnt plug up, however you will need the injector part of the harness so dont chuck it. I ran all my injector wiring independantly of the normal harness. Good luck with your swap.

 

how long did it take 2 arrive? And can u pay with a debit card?

thanks dre

 

Both of mine only took a week, from CA to FL so thats fantastic. I dunno about debit card...if it has a visa logo just say its a charge card...they run it as credit but it comes right out like a debit.

 

sweet will be ordering mine 2morrow!

thanks

 

also about how much would the shipping be to Ill?..
thanks

 

You're going to be surprised how hard that motor pulls. I really enjoy mine on a daily basis.

Me too. It's gonna be a mess when I do my swap

And once you have all your mpfi stuff done, theres no more wiring to do get the zc running right?

Yup, do all the wiring crap in the car...you'll end up with like 6 or 7 wires in your engine bay...4 hook up to the injector wire harness, 1 for power for the resistor box, and 2 to the dizzy. Its VERY simple, if you need pics I can snap you some, some of my wiring is loomed but inside the car its a MESS, lol. I jus put the kickplate on top of it all.

I took literlay 4 days form the time my payment got to Hmotors, good guys easy to work with and very helpful.

This swap should be easy, its a PGM-FI motor and my HF is PGM-FI, and its OBD-0. I already have the Si ecu and an Im waiting on a friend for the Si tranny.

seems like everyone is running sohc zc.. what is so special about the engine that's causing a lot of people to turn tot hem?

Isn't this the "most powerful" ( ) single cam non-vtec D series?

the D16A6 heads flow the best outta all sohc's, the sohc zc would be next in line ,

A6 and the sohc zc are identical down to the last detail but the cam, Its a little more aggressive. This will be what im buying next week to build for some boost. Damn good engines for the price.
