My brother is looking to buy a del Sol, but he doesn't really know anything about Hondas are cars at all really. Is there a website that shows pics of the different D-series engines so he can know what he's looking at when he sees pics on eBay and other places? I personally don't know all the differences myself, except that the D16Z6 valve cover I believe does not actually say VTEC on top.

try D-Series.org buddy... heaps of D series info...
Also the D16Z6 does have the VTEC honda word on the rocker cover, while the D16Y8 just has HONDA on the rocker cover... if you want, just post a pic of what your brothers engine looks like and we can help identify what it is.

you can find all the info you and him need right here on this site. you just have to search and spend sometime in the archives.

He doesn't have a del Sol yet. I was just hoping to find a single webpage that had pics of each engine that I could refer him to so he'll know what he's looking at when he goes to look at various cars, or looks at them on internet ads and stuff.

For instance, I don't know off-hand how to tell the difference between D15 and D16 non-VTEC engines just by looking at the valve covers (I know B-series motors not D's)

haha if he had one already I would just tell him to look at the engine code.

intake manifolds, spark plug placement, valve covers and if it has a vtec solenoid can usually pinpoint which motor it is.
