LS/VTEC - ZC/VTEC? Possible?

[vtecbaby82]

This is just a question. I was curious too. The ZC Non-VTEC motor found in some of the old school Integras, is a DOHC and is 1.6ltrs. Is it possible to throw a B16a cylinder head and make it a VTEC motor, Both the B16 and ZC motor are 1.6ltrs and DOHC. It's kind of like an LS/VTEC hybrid, if anyone knows lemme know if it's even possible and what kind of HP can someone get from this swap. Bottom line is it possible to make the ZC into a VTEC motor ?

It should be possible. I've seen B18's with B16a heads. Im not sure about cost and power and such, but it should help your car gain some power

no its not, not even close. 2 completely different motors. zc= d series, not b series. the head will not fit the block at all.

Well you need some modification obviously =P I just said it was POSSIBLE

umm, no its not. maybe if you welded the two together, but the combustion chambers wouldnt line up right.
