Default DOHC cars??

What US cars came with a DOHC Vtec setups? I know the del sols had vtec and the civic ex but what motor did they have? Would swapping a del sol vtec into my non vtec del sol make it sell quicker? any takers on one with or without it?

Civic ex did not come with dohc motors. They had a D16Z6 motor which is sohc. Civic si coupes had a B16 motor in there. One of the del sol had a B16 as well.

I have a 93 del sol si but has a d15y? motor. I'd have to check engine code again to make sure. I was thinking of fixing all the lil problems and sellin it off. so the si model had the DOHC and the rest got the shaft. thanks
