Default Swap

Are DOHC zc motors worth swapping into a 89 hb. What are there capabilities with stock internals. I've heard both good and bad about it. Thanks for the help in advance.

yes they are worth swapping in. but... there is hardly any support out there for it!! i personally would go with a D16z6. they both have about the same numbers!! just the DOHC zc well is DOHC!! and the D16z6 is SOHC VTEC!!

and with the D16z6 there is so much support out there for it!! plus you get to say you have VTEC!!!
