There is an OBD-1 version of the DOHC ZC.

 

It'd work, just repin some plugs and get the ECU and conversion harness. But it's a pointless swap, aftermarket for that motor sucks ballz.

Just go with a DOHC VTEC motor and you'll be much happier.

it is a crappy motor a dohc motor that only puts out 130 hp but my d16 just took a poo. and I need a new motor fast. I was trying to see if that was just a bolt in cause i found the motor for like $120.

you could find a regular d series motor like your old one for about that much. have you tried craigslist or any salvage yards in your area?

Putting that thing in your car would cost you way too much money even if it is just a temporary fix. Go find ya a Y8 and drop it in, wire VTEC and drive into the sunset. lol

Yeah it would cost you more too put that engine in. You would have trouble locating a distributor for it as it is an obd1 version of the dohc zc. We did not have a D16A1 with obd1 to get that dizzy from. I would just put in a replacement motor in the car. There are tons of sohc motors people have just taken from there cars to put dohc. Check craigslist.
