I have a nice 87 hatchback with the d15a2 carbureted motor in it that needs a new head gasket, so I thought, why not swap it out?
I dont want to spend the time/money to swap in a fuel injected motor but I want to make it fast - DOHC fast...
I have heard legends of a DOHC ZC carbureted motor but yet to find one
If anyone knows anything about this carbureted ZC motor, please let me know

well way back in the day (like '83) they came carb in Japan but never anywhere else. some people have converted there fuel injected D16A1 (ZC) to carb so it can be done. your best bet is to post at http://www.redpepperracing.com/forums i think at least one or two people have done it over there

I have a 1987 Civic DX hatch with the d15a2 carbureted motor and i was just wondering if anyone knew if there was really a carbureted zc motor and if you do, where could i find one or if you know of any other stronger motor that i could swap without a hella lot of trouble and money
