Default ZC engine info

Hello all, i was wondering if any one could tell me what the difference is between the zc engines that will fit the 88-91 civic'c and the ones that will go in the 92-95 civic's. The reason im asking is because i have a 88 civic with a zc in it and i have a 92 civic that is in much better shape body wise, but has a blown motor in it. I was told that the zc in my 88 will not fit the 92, but the engine mounts look the same, in both cars. In my 88 the engine doesn't seem to be sitting rite so im wondering if the guy i bought it from put a zc engine in it that should be for the 92-95 civics. Anyways, does anyone know how i can tell the difference between the two, if there is a difference. I would really like to drop the zc in the 92 and turbo it, but if not im thinking on going with the b16 if the cash flow allows it. Any info would be great, thanks...MadCow

The 92-95 ZC's have brown dizzy plugs.
