Of corse a Vtec motor is not that much harder to install it just takes more money, and I say if your gonna swap; then just go all the way cause Vtec is like crack, you hit it once and your hooked.

i dont think a b series is any harder to install than a zc if you get everything from hasport but you pay for it being easy

If you are going single cam, spend a extra $150 and get a d15b and convert to obd1. IMO d15b, z6, and y8 are better motors with more options. I've had both and really hate the cps on te exhaust cam of the ZC.

By harder I just meant there a few extra steps like wiring and frame rail prep, not really harder just more to do but IMO way more fun than a ZC (no offense to ZC owners though)

i agree... b series is not that much harder than a zc... you just need to fork out the cash for the extra stuff...

hasport mounts, shift linkage, (and hydro conversion unless you get the b16a cable) and a conversion harness done by rywire and its cake from there...
