Today theres no more "different" everything has basically been done.

If you want a DOHC motor your gonna either have to swap a B, H, or K series motor.

Now I have heard of people putting DOHC head on SOHC blocks but heard it took alot of machining and I bet it wasent wortht the trouble.

I used to have an EX Civic and now i have a GS-R and i'll tell you that the B series is much more fun than the D series. Just swap or turbo what you got. Don't f*** with the head because for the price, you could have something a lot better!!

the dohc on a sohc is just about as diffferent you can get but dont really expect any help. i have only read about one person doing this and he hasn't released much info and he did it with the ew motor and a zc browntop head. you could swap in a dohc zc but that whould be illigal and stupid because you already have a d16y8
