Engine choices
I just have a quick question to anyone who can help.
Car- 1995 honda civic dx 5 speed
I have a choice between 2 motors right now and the current one I have is a 1.5 d15b7 which is crap lol and I want to swap and do as little work as possible. The choices for motors are a ZC double non vtec 130hp or a ZC Single Vtec 130hp both have under 30k miles. Which will be the easiest to install and fit perfectly into my car without changing out the entire world just to make it run.
After this I will be looking to have someone install it within 2 1/2 weeks.
Let me know thank you

Re: Engine choices
LoL someone else just said that same thing to me I was only goin by what the guy on the phone was saying. So now I am not even sure what he meant by single. Im guessing single overhead cam and the other one that was non vtec was a dual overhead cam. I will find out monday when I call back to see if they have any B16a someone told me to check for that first.

Re: Engine choices
they do make a zc vtec.. i didn't believe it either until i say it.. i would go with a single vtec all day over a zc mind the name it was just funny at the time... all you would need is a p28 ecu or a msd rpm activated swith.. i would do the ecu.. and all you have to do is wire in the vtec... it is easy as shit on that car...i have done that swap like six or seven times... if i was you i would put a b18 in it.. i can also get you a d15b.. it is a single cam 1.5 vtec motor... it sounds like ass but i had one in my first crx.. it moved... it also has 130 hp.... and i can get it jdm for 450 or maybe alittle less.. i can get shit pretty cheap.. if you need a motor pm me with what you want and i can see what kind of price i can get it for.....
