Default 89 zc No oil HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK lets take this eazy.


i have wel i dont, but im helping a friend / we swaped a zc in to a 90 civic.
ran for about 2 days, then sezed but it was only the intake cam oil juronal that sezed.


today we removed the head (expecting tofind gernaded valve's) witch to the naked eye we didnt,


but this is the question, what are my options for the head.

The head has some nasty sezage to the jernals on the intake cam.

im sure when we take the head to the machine shop hes gonna tell me that its F ed.


is there another head i can put on there? is there something else that will fit?

at this point its looking like a hole new engine will cost about the same as a head rebuild

If it's a single cam, then any D16 head will bolt on. If it's a dual cam ZC I don't know to tell u the truth.

Or just browse the classifieds, I see ZC heads going for as low as $100-150 there.
