VTEC question
I was wandering how to find out if I have a VTEC. If I don't, is there a way I can make my motor have a VTEC?

It does not say VTEC on my valve cover or any where on the motor. Are you sure my car has VTEC, if I do is there any where I can check?

If it has D16Z6 stamped on the block it IS a VTEC motor. Just because it's not on the valve cover doesn't mean anything. Here's the specs:

Only about 1/3 of them do have it marked on the cover.

Yep Honda must have been doing bad those years cause they stopped using those value covers. Dahm I hate when car companys do that!
