if im wrong, correct me, but i think the silver ones are the old d15b's and the black tops are the newer ones. both still make the same power.

Back in the day I used to sport a black top D15B and it had a 92 stamp on the head. So I pretty sure that the silver cover's are newer one's, but still should bolt right up to a 92-95 chasis.

If its newer than 95 it would be odb 2 and have a knock sensor correct? mine does not. Im converting to OBD-1 in my crx i figured since it came out of 92-95 civics this forum would be better suited to my questions. could it be obd 2 with out a knock sensor?
