Is a SOHC vtec head on a non vtec block
 

Is a SOHC vtec head worth the money to put on a 97 4 door civic with i/e/cam gear/and 75 shot ? i already have the 93 ex tranny

Yes, why wouldn't it? Flows better plus VTEC.

Have you found a head to buy? How much? If you can get it inexpensively, do it. It should give you between 10 and 20 hp. (Assuming the same power gain between a DX and an EX) I forget if it was the 1.5 with 106 hp and the 1.6 non-vtec with 115 or if the 1.6 non-vtec had 106 hp. Any back-up would be appreciated.

your car should not weigh 3300 lbs. if it does, you have something wrong....
Anyways, yes you should be able to pull that civic
