This swap peaks my interest but I can't find any info on it. Would a d16zc drop right in with out having to buy mounts or do fabrications. According to wiki d16zc is virtually the same as a d16a1. Except zc is sohc vtech where a1 is just dohc. Anyone know?

D16z6 and D16a1 are different. You cant just switch the heads the block.

This pic shows a D16a6 same as a D16z6 and that is a D16a1 head gasket. the red arrow shows how on of the head bolts doesn't line up the swap has been done but the block need to be filled and re-tapped. Not worse the aggravation if you ask me.

Make sure its a legit depot. Some places are getting there motors from korea and places like that where the motors dont have the same standards as japan so the mileage isn't 30k-45k like they state
