In 94 & 95 is the Si 1.6L vtec model the B16 or is it the single cam? Thanx

 

DOHC

 

if it says si then its the sohc.. but if it says vtec then its the dohc motor

 

No, in SI's it's the d16Z6. sohc vtec 125 hp. it's called the vtec that has the b16.

 

It says both. It says "94-95 Civic Del Sol Si 1.6L Vtec" Which one is it? Thanx

 

it's the sohc, it's still a vtec engine it just isn't the b16. the actual title of the b16 del sol is vtec even though the engine in the si is also a vtec engine. The one your looking at is the SOHC though, I have an SI sitting in my driveway.

 

Thanx for your info.

 

The si badging is different in ontario than california it still could be a b16.

i think the canadians call the twin cam version Si-R...i think...

 

couldnt he just check the engine code on the engine itself? also check the redline, the si d16z6 has a 7200 redline, the b16 has a 8200 (something like that) redline.

if the badging says "dohc vtec" on the side and the rear trunk, then it's the b16. but you cant just base it on that cuz sometimes ppl take the badging off.

 

Check the block and/or the VIN. The Si SOHC will have "EH6" and the VTEC DOHC will have "EG2."

 

S = 1.5L sohc!
SI = 1.6L sohc!
VTEC = 1.6L dohc!

ALL YEARs!

Close, but not quite. Let's try again with the S.

S = 1.5L SOHC (93-95), 1.6L SOHC (96+)
Si = 1.6L SOHC VTEC (all years)
VTEC = 1.6L DOHC VTEC (all years)

 

in Canada the civic model names are different but not Del Sol. If it is an SI and it hasn't had a swap then it's a D16Z6.

Or a D16Y8 if it's a '96 or '97.

Closer but not 100%
93 there was no DOHC VTEC
so 94-97 DOHC

Obviously, I meant "all years in which a del Sol VTEC existed." After all, there was no Si in, say, 1776 either. Doesn't make sense to talk about the engine in a car that doesn't exist!
