I really dont want to have to switch axles,or hubs or anything like that.I would like to pretty much just drop a engine and ecu in the car and have a nice reliable performer.It current just has a stock hf with dx tranny.I would actually keep it but the engine is burning oil so i think its on its way out.I was wondering would a DOHC ZC be to much to swap?I might be able to get a si tranny for free...so it would be ok.Is there anything else i need to switch around or should i just swap the si motor in there.I dont really want to have to rewire anything,or change mounts ,etc like the b-series swaps.

 

d16a6,dohc zc, or sohc zc. all easy swaps with about same performance.

 

d16a6 same as dohc zc?isnt there like a 25 hp difference?

 

d16a6

 

if i where you i would go with a dohc zc with a si tranny that way you can keep your axels and hubs btw its a great motor and is no harder to put in than a nother hf motor

 

my friend turns out to have a dohc zc motor that needs a rebuild.He also happens to have a si tranny.I might get them both for 100

 

d16a6!

 

thats a awsome deal if you get a zc and si tranny for 100

 

Cheapest, easiest? Another HF.
That being a less than desireable choice, look for a sohc zc. They're relatively cheap...around $400 but it'll give you roughly 118 hp.

 

well i mean with decent power...i have a dx tranny on my zc now.It isnt the fastest thing in the world but i was surprised how quick the 68hp car moves.If i can get the zc and tranny from my friend i will.

 

put another hf engine in if you dont care about performance or cost but a good swap for the money is an ls swap

 

well i mean i care about performance...but i think a dohc zc and si tranny is just what im looking for...under 1k or so fully installed and running decent times low 15's high 14's is quite good for me for now
