ok so i was wondering if an ls swap is just the same thing as a dohc zc???? what more does this involve???? thanks in advance

 

no

LS= B series = mounts, faster, more parts
DOHC ZC= no mounts, less parts, not as fast, lighter??

 

yes I believe DOHC ZC is lighter by like 50 lbs.

 

holy ****......mounts 500 from hasport.....linkage................other ****.....dude no way is that worth if for only 15 hp/trq and the fact that the damn ls is 200 bucks more....wow
thanks fellas.......ZC IT IS!!!!!!

there is more then that to it but i like both swaps myself

 

you know hasport isnt the only company that makes mounts. you can even get b series mounts on the forum for as low as $150 for never used brand new mounts. and arizona race & machine makes hasport quality mounts for a little less i believe also. what i am trying to tell you is that b-series are better. more parts, better tuning options etc etc.

 

not really more parts for the b sereis then the zc

i mean u can get rods and pistons for both, headers for both, intakes for both, cam gears for both, cams for both, block gurads for both, valve trains for both,
fuel rails for both
plus the stock zc is like 10hp less the the ls but cost so much more less that for the same amount of money u can be faster with the zc


if u want and all out race car go with the ls and turbo it

if u want a daily driver and somthing fun got with a zc with simple homade turbo kit

 

hes got it!

yea dude id love to do an ls and build the **** out of it. or even a b18c but im a 16 y.o kid makin 7 bucks an hour so im bein realistic.....just wonderin and figurerin this **** out.
thanks for all the input guys

 

zc wouldnt be the best choice because yes they got parts for it, but they are more than parts for an ls motor if you think about it and spend your money right a b18a or b18b swap could very well be cheaper. You have to pay to ship a zc to you. I did my b18a swap and made money. Looked for wrecked integras, i got mine for $200 ran good but the rear was fucked i took everything i needed and parted out the interior and things off my old motor, got mounts and linkage for $250(HCP) and still ended up profiting about $100. Its not hard to find good deals, look in the paper, junk yard (I found a b series turbo mani and downpipe in a eg hatch today and paid
$29 for it).
What im tryin to say is ppl rule out b series because they think they are expensive when they are actually pretty damn cheap.

 

lol funny u should say that..........ive been to seven junkyards in the past month.....LOOKING FOR A MOTHER ****** DOOR PANEL AND COULDNT FIND ONE..out of seven junkyards........not to be a dick just figured thatd give u an idea of what im workin with here ....but i dont have the time nor resourses to go pullin all this **** out ofa junkyard and time involved so the ZC it shall be after i get done with mpfi. thanks

 

lol the ZC is a glorified D series engine.. lol it lacks torque and horse power.. go with the ls the swap is not the same.
