    NO. A d16a1 is the brown top zc out of the integra. It uses different mounts and makes less power than the other dohc zc's. www.thezcr.com is a good resource.

    OP was asking if it should bolt right up. No it wont. Other people in this thread made it clear that they weren't 100% positive with the exception of you lol. I am giving my thoughts thats all. Also a lot of people are constantly mislead into believing that the A1 is the same as a DOHC ZC, A8, or A9 which it isnt.

    i believe that it will bolt up if you have all the mounts.. i have a ZC swap out of a crx and got it to bolt into my eg civic perfectly!! only thing is to make sure you change this bracket...
