Default What valve cover is this from?

Anyone know which DOHC VTEC had this valve cover in USDM or JDM land?

Its definately not a 92-93 GSR valve cover. All Gen2 and Gen3 GSRs have the same valve cover. It looks like a B16a valve cover. I believe both JDM and USDM b16s use the same valve cover.

Here's a picture of a 2nd Gen GS-R.



This isn't a VTEC Del Sol cover either, must be a JDM B16A (old school) valve cover.

looks like a b16a1 valve cover to me.. USDM..

here's a b16a2:


here's what i believe to be a b16a1:


the 2nd one i bought and had painted to match(these are both from my old Si).. pretty sure the 2nd came off a del sol.. notice that the b16a2 cover only says "HONDA", not "Honda Motor Company"..

all the B18 Valve Covers have DOHC in big letters. ALL B16's have VTEC in big letters. SO that's a B18C JDM Valve COver !
Ummm, NO.
JDM B18C are same as US B16A

US spec B16's i.e. SI's or Del-Sol's.

JDM have the "VTEC" bigger than the "DOHC" letters.
