not trying to be a smart-***, but seeing how everything else under the hood is DC sports, it would be a fair guess to say the header is too

that looks to be a DC Sports stainless steel 4-2-1 2-piece header.

it is, check out the headlight... that nice "cute" look as my girlfriend called my 98 civic's look.. but the engine its self looks like it might be just the B16 decked out in DC sports parts. If it's not, then why does the DAC line up just like it should? The mounting bracket lines up just like the B16 one would in a civic. Honestly it looks just like the B16 setup my ex-manager has in his civic. Maybe it's not, but it sure looks just like his engine bay

Yep, sure is. Mine looks just like it. When you first get it, it's a shiny stainless steal. Then after a while it starts to turn goldish. Looks nice.

Well there are many things that tell you it's an H22a....the simple one is the rubber stopper for checking the timing at the flywheel, and the front engine mount holes on the block that aren't being used...power steering pump missing....blah blah

wow, after a second look, i noticed the alternator is in the front, not the back.. so it is an H22... honestly it doesn't look that big in there. My mistake!

my civic (98 hx) had the rubber stopper on the tranny to check flywheel also... and my manager's 99 Si has everything stripped, so the steering pump/etc wasn't as much of a visual clue to me as to some. I'm use to not seeing it there heh. I guess like i said above hte biggest clue, and the one I really overlooked, was the alternator being in the front like it is
