like you posting somthing relavent and turning caps lock off?

A D to B head swap won't be fesable idea sorry to tell you. a8 is the dohc right?
if so its still good motor to build up or just swap for a B.

Would one of the mods please ban this useless kid? He was already warned by a mod, and clearly he doesn't care. We talk about making this place better than it has been, yet stuff like this...screw it who cares

zc's and b series are not interchangeable. you MIGHT be able to swap a head off of a first generation integra d16a3, but there'd be no reason to. ZC's are strong little motors build it up or swap the whole thing. you wouldn't wanna have a 9.5 compression ratio on a b series setup anyways, unless you have forced induction.

hey guys, i may not post 60 posts a day like lame ass hontoy, but do i ramble too much or am i on target. where did our mods go anyways nothing is being done. i am having an affair with honda-tech right now cause this spam and whoring is making AF look bad.

If you dont have anything to say, don't say anything at all!!!!!!

boost!
HKS and www.exospeed.com have cams if you wanta go all motor

i have a friend whos old 4th gen with ZC boosted ran 12s stock guts *granted he had slicks and gutted so no one calls b/s*

ZC is a stout motor just got overlooked sadly.

Intake/headers/exhaust and get some cams, serious weight reduction is always a good idea. get rid of the air conditioning, power steering, bumper supports, etc. a fuel pressure regulator should help, theyre like 80 bucks but wont do good on its own, you need to get more air to the combustion chamber to match the increase in fuel.

I also would suggest getting cams after I/H/E, they can make your car sound like a sleeper at idle :¬D with that irregular, abnormal, fluctuating idle.

oh yea forgot to mention- if you want more tips on building up a zc motor you should search the 88-91 civic forum, because we dont use that motor here, they do though.
