Eagle lists the same part number for all D16's, including the ZC, so I see no reason why they wouldn't work.

what pistons are you using? - most aftermarket forged rods are made to use pistons with full floating pins, not pressed fit pins like stock OEM Honda pistons have

most H-beam rods will require notching of the block to clear the rods
