Please turn cap locks off.

you should use the proper computer for your engine, or buy an aftermarket computer. I'm sure there's other things

ok to break it down i have a 93 honda civic eg8 it came with d15b 3 stage v-tec engine after a few years the head gasket blew there were no upgrades or mods done to engine it just decided one day it was going to commit suicide after an exhausting search for "d15b head and block replacement" i decide to take the road of a "sohc zc head and block" which works just fine for everyday use dont get me wrong i do lots of vehicle repairs and i'm quite educated in the area of auto mechanics do its not my profession i just like handy work reason for my initial question is simply that i know with honda its basically an equation many ways to get the answer but only one formula can by applied and accepted so basically i want not only for the vehicle to function but i need it to function at its best

You're quite educated but you made your post out to be a noob'ish request for help. Go read the rules and try again. This is no longer a 3 stage vtec since the head is no longer the d15z7 head so the title is also all wrong.

There is not a single period in that entire abortion of a post. If you want any kind of help, you're going to have to use your gradeschool education and type like a civilized human being.

Ok to make things clear:
1. There is no way my title could be wrong unless a "retard" is reading it specifically states "D15B 3 Stage V-Tec (SWAP)!!" Meaning obviously the D15B head and block is no longer present in vehicle or i would have stated i did a replacement meaning....ok i dont need to explain any further you understand....or do you???
2. To the nostalgic literature teacher this a social forum no marks are rewarded for proper dictation.
3. With all this said "FORUMS" are meant for exchanging ideas and discoveries and use the knowledge you have to assist those that maybe less educated in the subject of discussion so if you read and did not understand or dictation was not to your standards simply move along.
To Honda Hero thanks again
