Hmm..i know when i got my head back from the machine shop, they didnt put the dowel pins back in.So i just took the ones out of my tranny and stuck them in the head.I duno if this would work on an ls/vtec tho.

Sounds like a great idea..... Or possibly NOT. The dowel pins are needed in the trans mission as much as they are needed in the head. Robbing Peter to pay Paul is not good advise.

eh, one of my hondas has no dowel pins in the tranny. They are def. needed in the head though.
