vtec-e works completely different, instead of opened the valves wider and longer.........the second intake valve is only partially open until "vtec" kicks in then it opens all the way.....

Between 2nd and 3rd runners on the exhaust mani the head code is stamped. Find that code, then find the z6 head code and compare... - Darrell

i think he meant on the head itself between the 2nd and 3rd runners. theres codes on the head just find them and compare to other codes you find.
