Just get the SOHC manifold, everything else will be good

if everything else works, whitch it should, just get a sohc log manifold from shop cc fab. They are the best i have found and i have only heard good things from them.

The SOHC ZC is pretty much the same as the Si motor you already have. If you want an upgrade, go with the DOHC ZC.

I own both SOHC and DOHC ZC.

If your looking for cheap rebuildable engine when **** goes wrong. SOHC ZC, DOHC ZC don't have a wide variety of aftermarket like the SOHC does, since it's a one of a kind engine.
