I'm pretty sure i know the answer to my own question , just looking for some supportive info. I have a 93 d16z6 the vlave cover is the plain black valve cover, dosent say vtec or anything just honda, if i buy the valve cover from a 94, 95 will it fit? i'm assuming no becuase the spark plugs holes are on opposite sides but maybe it will work? anyone tried this before?

if you have a d16z6 and you buy one of the ones from 94 or 95 which say vtec on them than yes it will fit no problem, and they spark plug holes are on the same side, toward the front bumper..

NonovUrbizniz

that's a pic of 2 different valve covers for 2 different model engines...

csprague

if so then I believe you can just swap covers

truley it is. good luck with your valve cover swap, I have a '95 D16Z6 with the aluminum cover and it looks sweet polished

Henry HA

yes it would, maybe this guy is just confused, the picture obviously shows that the right is 1.5 liter and left is 1.6

if the plug holes are on the firewall side, then you don't have the Z6 head on there. You sure it's a vtec head and not just a non vtec head on the Z6 block??? Looks for the vtec selenoid

salbaje

Is it possible you got d16 bottom end with d15 head?? do you have picture of your motor?? Does it have vtec solenoid?

GSRswapandslow

vtec heads hae the spark plug holes on the fradiator support side of hte engine...


and no US engiens have vtec on them in SOHC for civics...right?

I know that the JDM d15b does as well as their Z6 preplacement..the d16a

I think your a very lost kid who needs to find your way home. J/K but according to your quote, (like emerika already mentioned) it seems to me you have a z6 block with a non-vtec head. You got ripped off brotha

EX-T

Here's a '99 D16Y8 with a '95 Z6 valve cover.....

GSRswapandslow

huh, my bad....never knew that...or maybe I did and forgot?

who know?!
