if i had 5k id get a twin cam. i mean, im a single cam fan, but why not get a twin cam if you had 5k.

better to make a big motor do big things than a small motor.

Well I think it's better to build a small motor an doo great things.

Specifics, I'm not sure, but build the SOHC and turbo it. You have more potential with a turbo. If at any point the turbo you chose is just not working for you, you can always upgrade and keep most of your setup, just add to it. On the Supercharger you just get what you get. I don't know, I don't like superchargers, I'm all about the turbos

your friend is a tool. wasted money putting a 86-87 ZC?? i doubt it's a real ZC, cuz they didnt make them until 88 i thought? o well..

5k.. well, what civic is this? If it's a EX, ,pull the motor and get it sleeved, then get some good pistons / rods. new gaskets and pumps and put her back together.
if its not a EX(or Si) then get a b18b motor and hondata ecu, build that and run 15psi.
