Really you got a ZC? do you know whats wrong with it? You might want to find out in case its worth fixing. If you have an A6 lying around, that can definitely go in your rex, as it is the stock engine for an 88-91 SI. If your looking for more horse (the a6 has about 100 hp as is) you can do a head swap as your were saying above, but I dont think it will work with the zc head(how do you know the ZC head isn't shot anyway?). The only real swaps you can do on an a6 are the mini me ones, which is a y8 and z6 if I remember right. Good luck on it though

sohc zc vtec is the jdm equivalent of the z6 in pretty sure so that head will also work for a mini me.
