You've got a little dyslexia going on in your post, but I think I know what you mean. Though some ZC D series are DOHCs, as far as I've seen, mini-me's have only been SOHC VTEC.

D heads only fit on D blocks.

B heads only fit on B blocks

You want a mainstream DOHC? Get a B series. Go full swap. Get a ZC DOHC if you want, but you probably won't like it.

Please, please learn english, i can't even understand your last post. Yes you can swap a SOHC vtec head on a SOHC non-vtec block, this is a mini-me. No you cannot swap a DOHC head on a SOHC block. Yes you can swap in an entire DOHC engine, generally you also need the matching transmission, axles mounts, shift linkage ecu, etc. You can swap in an OBD1 DOHC ZC and not have to change anything but the ECU, even thats somewhat optional. That engine is fairly uncommon though and has essentially no aftermarket support, for replacement parts the list of vehicles to get replacement parts from reads like a grocery list, and some things such as the distributor were never available in north america at all.

Let's first establish this:

Exactly what engine do you have now?

Is it a D15B7?
