I'm pretty sure that a DOHC head will not fit on a SOHC block. At least that is the case with the USDM D-series engines. Since your rings are bad anyway, look for a complete engine to swap in.

yes the dohc zc head is the ONLY head that will fit on a sohc block

for the si gauge it just plugs rite up, no extra wiring needed. the tach will work

for the coverting from 2 fuel injectors (dpfi) to the 4 fuel injector system (mpfi) is a big gain you will like it.
i have done it.
