ok i have numbers on block d16z6, and 2326666. i know what the block is but i need to know what kinda head i have b/c i know its not vtec. the casting numbers are as follows b30621db66. if anybody has an idea of what kind of head i have it would be awesome. i have blown my headgasket and need to know what kind of head i have to get another one.

 

How do you know it's not VTEC?

Many SOHC VTEC motors do not say VTEC on the cover.

To start, are the spark plugs on the front side or back side of the motor?



Do you see one of these on the left side of the motor? (On the back of th head)

 

if its a z6...why wouldnt it be vtec, unless someone did an reverse mini-me on your engine??

 

well what im thinkin is the original engine wasnt vtec. they may have blew something out in the bottom end and replaced it with a z6 engine. it has a p08-3 head if that helps any??

p08 cylinder head cast is for a z6; mine had it stamped on the side. I think one or two other heads share that cast, but I honestly forget which. Maybe the d15z1 and d15b heads?

 

has anybody seen these number (b30621db66) stamped on the front of the head??

JDM D15B VTEC and the D16Z6 share the P08 casting. The D15Z1 is a P07.

That is most likely an internal Honda part or serial number. Last I checked the dealer can't even cross-reference it. You have the correct VTEC head if it is a P08 casting.

 

ok cool thanks for all the help. i guess i have a vtec head lol. i will know when i can actually pick the car up!!!!!
