Someone bump this thread on someone else thread, I just thought to check it out. First thing I stamble upon on page one was port matching the tb/manifold and port matching intake and exhaust.
If your going to port match only port match one side or it will work againts you and loose on some serious tq. For example, Tb making the runner a little bigger is wise but to big will take negative effect. Only port match the intake manifold to gasket and don't port match the exhaust.
Your already done some serious head work and that's what the ZC needs. Port matchng everything else will kill the flow and might work against you. Also, You done a great job on this build and I think it's more of pribe that drives you. Excellent work, but you could have save some serious cash on engine management and cam gear.
The b16 cam gear work great with the zc and there about 50bucks. A chip p28 ecu or chip p06 non vtec ecu will be good enought and tune with crome. In my own opinion I know power goal is at 160. I really don't think you would see that or come close. Overall, great work.
good luck
