Im new to the whole import scene and have had american brands car since i have started driving, but i just purchased a CIVIC Ex coupe and was wanting to trick it out a little...i was looking at WEKSOS's block dress up kits and and the valve cover is for a B-series JDM motot but im pretty sure it will fit...the only thing is that the Oil fill is on the Right side on my car and it is on the left of the valve cover in the pic..My question is that does it matter what side the Oil fill hole is on?? Any info on this is greatly appriciated..

Thanks Blackdiamond

what motor does your car have? unless its swapped a b series VC wont fit your d series head.

I beleive it is a 1.6 SOHC vtec B series...like i said im new to this..i did a search and this is what i got i think its like a B18 or 16 IDK...id take a pick but its dark outside

I'll make this easy for you.
D-series = SOHC (with Exception to 1G Integra)
B-Series = DOHC

chances are, you have a honda civic, you have a SOHC D16 unless its an Si when its a B16.

the valve cover wont work on your car.

you could do something like this though,


red wrinkle paint the valve cover.

i take that back it might be a D series a D16Z6 to be exact but it is vtec

NightCat

2 door? then your an EJ1. 92-95 civic es.

D16Z6 is the D16Y8's older brother.

Black Diamond

Night cat that is exactly what im looking for thanks alot...so i have a D sereis thanks..and thats a stock valve cover??? looks like it. but for future referance does it matter which side the Oil fill is on?

Black Diamond

Yes it is a 2dr ex so your saying is a D16Z6 or a D16Y8..which one

Black Diamond

So are D16Z6 and D16Y8 valve covers interchangeable...?
