Go B or stay ZC?
 

What should I do? I just got my income tax return and a local shop is haveing a deal on b16's. I have a dohc zc right now that i was goin to do a build up on but now I dont know?. The thing is if I stayed with my zc then I have to put the d16 back together and put it in the car to start on project zc. But if I went b16 i could build it up with no down time on my car. But then i would have to make some changes to the turbo kit that im piecing together. Im so confused and dont know what to do. Info & suggestions please.

I guess it will all depend on how much you feel like spending on the engine. I mean if you feel like going all out, I'd build up the b16 and turbo it. But if your going to try and stay on track with the zc, then just finish building up the zc and turbo it.

I would take a B18 over a B16 anyday. The B16 is the most overrated motor around. From the money you saved from going non VTEC you could have a badass motor

keep the zc

Re:Go B or stay ZC?
 

keep the zc, zc's are cheap to buy if ya blow the thing up, b16 are more expensive if ya blow ths ---- up

Build a D series. ;)

I know the b16 is overrated but wouldnt it be a better starting point than the zc. Good parts for the zc are kinda hard to find. iono its a hard choice. Heres the deal i could get on the motor from the shop thats like 30 min away from me.

yea but the zx is on a come up, looks like parts are getting easier and easier to find

I'm a diehard D series fan and my vote would be for the D, but that is a good price for the swap. :-\
