I am planning to put a 50 shot in my 90 civic hatch that has a ZC motor. I just wanted to know if the motor could handle it.
if u just plan to shoot a 50 shot, it will handle it..
make sure u retard ur timing like 2 deg, use colder plugs, and make sure u re not running lean

hope you have a good clutch.... my old ZC w/ stock clutch didnt like its 50 shot. clutchy go byebye. if you have an aftermarket clutch spray away...
The stock ZC rods/pistons are known to withstand 190-200hp. Just make sure you do everything correctly, and you should have no problems.

Just use colder plugs and maybe get a fuel controller and you will be set.
