Default ZC Engine Swap?

I was wondering if anyone could help me with the specifics on the ZC engine, for example; what kind of HP will I be making, how much would it cost (engine, and install), the modifications that will need to be made to accomidate the engine, and the mods that can be done to the engine after it is installed. This would be for a <89 Civic HB>. I know I should go with a B18 or a B16, but ima baller on a budget, that deosn't even have working air con. Which brings another question, if i get a new engine that includes AC would i only need a charge to get it running icy cold?

AC... you will have to figure out what is the problem with you existing system... if it is the compressor only and you get a good compressor with the swap then have it filled and you are set... if not then you will have to fix whatever is wrong...

That torque rating can't be right dude. LSs have that much torque. I will post the specs when i find them.

Wow look at that it took me less than a minute to find the answer to this question, please people instead of asking these simple questions try searching on your own.
