ZC is better than most other D-series motors at handling boost, plus it's DOHC, so you have more control of the timing and cams. I wouldn't recommend trying to do a VTEC headswap on a ZC, since it would be a SOHC conversion. If you're going to do that, you might as well just buy a SOHC ZC (since it's already VTEC)...
