Ok I'm doing a tune up to my crx, I had it swaped to a sohc non vtec zc. Now my problem, I'm thinking it's similar to all d series engines, so I got me a valve cover gasket from a 88-91 crx 1.6 motor sohc fuel injected. But it doesn't seem to fit my valve cover. There longer then my old gasket, which my gasket is shorter. So do I need a gasket from the 92-99 d series motors instead? Any one come across this situation also

 

Wow still no answer what happen to all the zc lovers out there, at least this could help others when they come across this problema

 

Strange. I thought it would be the same gasket. A6=ZC non-vtech.

 

no after getting the gasket set it didn't fit, I'm guessing its from a 96-99 usdm honda motor because I have a friend who gots a zc jdm swap off a 99 japan honda civic in his 96 ek hatch and its exactly like my zc.

 

Ok this summs up all zc motors besides the 88-91 zc which also came as a zc in the 96-2000 model civic, this mean they are similar or alike as the d16y6 or d16y8 usdm. So this meams wheb you buy spark plugs or wires or do a tune up your getting relpacement parts from the 96-2000 generation not the 88-91 d15, d16z6 modles

 

You'll probably need the z6/y7/y8 valve cover gasket. The a6/b7/b2 use the same valve cover gasket.

 

There's two zc's the one that is similar to the 88-91 d16a6 and the zc that's similar to the 1996-2000 d16y7.
