Just recently my 89 crx hf d15b6 dropped a valve so the shop I got to do the swap I thought was going to get a d16z6...well they didn't get that engine...ohh well no biggie I guess. They most likely wouldn't have wanted to do the wiring to set it up right anyways they aren't into modifying a car too much.
Anyways they bought the motor from a place in los angelos that sells japanese motors.
they say the motor has about 41,000 miles on it. Only thing is I am not familiar with the engine code....just says ZC....but it's SOHC and no vtec. I'm guessing it's the crx si motor....am I wrong? If I'm wrong then which car is this motor from? Also what kinda horsepower are we looking at?
Really anything is better than that shitty d15b6 motor that was in it.

 

yea its pretty much the same as a crx si motor just a couple more horses...btw if you plan on swapping i highly reccomend getting the crx si tranny aswell.

 

there has been a couple of recent post asking the same question you are. please read through first. also if you need more information, go to search, select crx/ef forum then type in sohc. zc's should come up. just for **** n giggles i'll let you know anyway, sohc zc is about 118hp/100tq, has lil bit more aggresive cams than the a6, and stronger on the exhaust side. search is your friend, also read through the forum, that's what it's for.
