jdm ZC, D16A6, or D16 sohc vtec which one of this would be better rebuilt for turbo?

 

All 3 have the exact same bottom end.. So bottom end wise, their is no advantage in any of them...

3 differnt heads... The ZC flows the best, but does not have aftermarket support like the Z6 does.. I personally like DOHC's alot better. The ports and all the valves are larger on the ZC as well. To some the ZC is the Best to build up since it's a twin cam design, but The Z6 has more aftermarket valve train support. which is very nice.. Either way, you could make any 3 of those motors pull 10 sec slips if you really wanted too.

This is my preference...

ZC DOHC
D16y8 or Z6
D16a6

doesn't the z6 have squirters that shoot oil on the bottom of the pistons? i read somewhere all vtec blocks had them.

 

Nope, all B-series Vtec blocks have Oil squirters.. \
B16a/b B17a B18c

D16Y8 has no oil squirters?

 

As far as I know, I havent seen a D-series with them period, I will double check..

 

d16y8 = no squirters

 

do, let me get this right...you can put a ZC head on a, let's say, d15b7 bottom end with no MAJOR modifications?

 

no you cant...

 

phew! that's what i thought! for a second there...i got a little excited!
