Ok i have a SOHC Non-vtec ZC motor but i don't know if its a 1.5 or 1.6 liter and does anyone know if its a D15 or a D16 motor, heres a pic from the website that the motor was bought from http://www.hmotorsonline.com/s...30018

 

look on the block stamp, its prolly covered in dust/oil/coolant/dirt, tho.

 

yeah that like the first thing i did and all it says is "ZC" so i went searching online and i can't find any Info about it besides how much Hp it has but i can't find out if its a 1.5 or 1.6

 

it has to be a 1.6

 

its 1.6

 

thats what i thought cause i swear its just like a D16a6 but JDM not only that but i need to buy a new oil pan and just wanted to make sure it was a 1.5 or 1.6

 

how can you tell its a 1.5 or 1.6???? cause it doesn't say on the motor or anything

 

i thought all the jdm zc's were 1.6's......

 

they are all 1.6L. there wasnt ever a 1.5L zc.

the only way to prove it is to measure the bore and stroke of it.. but .. that would be a waste of time. as far as i know, the d15, d16 and zc all share the same engine block with the possible exception being the dohc zc... just pistons and rods, head choice and cam and crank were the variables.

 

dude,all zc's are 1.6

 

the one know of that was a 1.5 was called a d15b

Yes, that's the D15B VTEC motor, not a ZC. ALL blocks stamped with ZC are 1.6L. The only other ZC "variants" are the D16A8/9 found in EDM vehicles, they are identical to the JDM DOHC ZC's.

 

its basically just a d16a6 with a more aggressive cam, packs like an extra 10hp or so

no nono , there were two versions of d15b, vtec and non vtec. What i was trying to say is that the only jdm engine that i knew of that was 1.5 was a d15b.

 

No prob, I just pointed that out because I've commonly heard people refer to the JDM D15B VTEC as the "VTEC ZC", when no such thing exists.

 

Too many people confuse these, so atleast it will help clarify for people reading this.

D15bvtec - 1.5
d15bnon vtec-1.5
zc vtec -1.6
zcnon vtec-1.6

Although the D15B JDM is not a ZC, being JDM does not automatically make it VTEC either. I have a D15B JDM NON-VTEC to prove it.
