So if you are buying an engine from an engine importer it would be cheaper to buy a sohc zc than a usdm a6. I would base that guess off of the dohc zc is cheaper than a usdm a6. And if a sohc zc is really just a hot rodded a6 than why not go for it?
SOHC ZC vs. D16A6
They are the exact same engine except for the cam. Meaning you won't have trouble finding any parts for it, as its basically an A6. I know this b/c thats the engine going into my car. I gave up on my search to find a low-mileage A6 and decided on the ZC instead.

If your gonna rebuild an engine the A6 is about the easiest one I have ever done.
yeah there is not alot to the a6 but the Zc SOHC is the same thing internally except for the " mystery cam" that makes it a tad stronger. . .
Does the sohc zc have the same mounts as the a6?
Yes, its the EXACT same engine. The only difference b/t the ZC block and the A6 block is the letters stamped on them.
I thought somewhere on d-series.org they compared the cams and they were the same? maybe it was on crx h-p. Said the only difference was the ecu tuning.
