Default SOHC Non-VTEC ZC Swap on the Way! Any comments?

I was just wondering what I should expect out of this swap. I have a 91 Std. Hatch btw. Anybody here have experiences with this engine and wannna share? How's the performance? And what about upgrades down the road? I haven't seen to many parts for this engine! Any suggestions?

Its basically like a d16a6 engine with a better cam..so for most parts just use d16a6 as the source..Its not the most powerfull but going from a std motor to that you'll notice a big gain..

No complaints here. mine came in carbed, so that was fun ripping off all that stuff. all i had to do was plug the hole for the manual fuel pump. i dont think it has 120hp though. i'm thinking its still the 108 from the a6.

You could have pieced togeather a turbo kit with all of that stuff mentioned and had a 13 second car. As it is it looks pretty but you'll be lucky to make a 15 second pass.

some pepole like turbos others don't like me i mean yes it will be nice but i just don't want the headaches that you get with turbos as for 15 i belive you but the ony track that i have close by my me is just a 1000 ft track and when i first did the swap my best time was 13.3 also it was my first time on a track and it was bone stock with out any of the stuff i got now
