There is no SOHC VTEC D16A availible or imported to North America. You're thinking of the D16Z6/Y8 and SOHC VTEC ZC family. They all hover in the 125-130hp range.

Ok I did some more research and I found sites that sell the d16A SOHC VTEC Engine. Plus I have one in my Del sol. ( I just dropped it in this weekend) What I need are specs. ANY SPECS. The guy told me it's a rare engine. I know it's from japan and thats about it.

thanks

I would be willing to bet a lot of money that if you ordered one one those "1.6 D16A VTEC" engines that it would either be a ZC or some bullshit USDM/JDM hybrid.

there actaully is a D16 SOHC, but like Kai says it is a hybrid USDM/JDM engine, or the more commonly known as the ZC. D16A6
Engine: Stock HP: Stock Torque:
D16A6 95.9 91.6"
D16Z6 105.9 99.9"

uhm..


d16a6 is a stock crx/civic si engine
there is a sohc zc but it is non vtec. its very similar to the d16a6.
there is also a d15b, which is sohc vtec.
and then of course the d16z6/y8 which is sohc vtec.

never seen a d16a vtec, unless its a mini-me, which in my opinion is a complete waste of time anyway.
