can be done yes
should be done no

The head bolt hols and passages are off a bit.
takes a lot of machining and shit

Not worth it imo.

Just use the Y8 or swap an LS in there.
The only reason why we used to use dohc zc's were because nobody wanted to but mounts for an ef.

If you have a rebuildable core ZC head/block, give it to me.

why not go buy a '88/'89 D16a1 and put the zc head on it? people practically give d16a1's away.

Yeah, I did that once. Not worth the time.

Having to totally re-engineer a $5 cookie cutter car is stupid when there are already $5 go fast parts on the shelves for them is a complete waste of time.

i'd build an 84-87 car, but goddamn it's hard to find a decent CG-series transmission.  :(

Bam, D16A1 in my old ED.  I probably would never do it again though.  Might as well just boost the shit out of the stock motor.
