Zc Specs
Taken from a ZC brochure. That's a ZC engine cut away.

ZC Part Interchange numbers

Timing Belt 88 Honda Prelude p/n - 14400-PK2-004
Distributor cap 88 Acura Interga p/n - 30102-PM7-305
Rotor 88 Acura Integra p/n - 30103-PM5-A05
Head Gasket 88 Honda Prelude p/n – 12251-PM7-003

Clutch Parts 90 Honda CRX
ZC Clutch disk use: 89 Honda Civic DX p/n - 22200-PM7-J02
ZC Pressure plate use: 89 Honda Civic DX

The 89 DX and the 89,90,91 CRX use the same size shaft and same number of splines
on the transmission. The 89 DX clutch disk and pressure plate is smaller in
diameter by about one inch than the CRX Si. Although the flywheel is the
same diameter on both. As long as you stay with one or the other it should
work fine.

Technical Data:

1.6L (1590 cc) DOHC
130-135 hp @ 6800 rpm
Bore 75.0
Stroke 90.0
C.R. 9.5:1 I can find no evidence of it being any higher than this.
91 octane. Some have reported no problems with 87, but the specified
gas is equal to 91-92 'pump octane' available
in the US or Canada, although I use 94 octane
Identification:
