Default What is the difference between cylinder heads...

hey guys i have a 95 accord F22B1 (VTEC) and I am replacing the cylinder head. the thing is that the cylinder head that i took off my car says POA-2 and the cylinder head that i got was a POA-3. So does anyone know if i can stilll use this POA-3 in place of my POA-2.

thank

I'm not all that familiar with the stampings. Do you know what year/model it came from?

you can tell by looking at the rocker arm assembly if that's the vtec head or the non-vtec head. but i'm sure you had enough sense to purchase a vtec head. so what im sayin is, if it is vtec head, it should work.

numbers shouldnt matter dude, just change your head gasket and torque it down to spec.
