Learn to use the enter key, the shift key to capitalise properly and that ... does not equate to a period.

The DX head has a slightly less aggressive cam and is DPFI, otherwise it's the same.

Like he said, the casting of the head is the same, the only difference is the valve springs, and the cam. Just swap over all the SI valvetrain into the DX and slap it on.
