well i know very little about this two engines

hx:

vtec-e
1.6
obd2

vx:
vtec-e
1.5
obd 1

now i know the hx has the rollers in it wich lots of ppl out there says is better than the v tec head. i will like to try this on my turbo sohc dx. my car is obd 1 so i will like to see if someone knows about this and can tell me sorta what to go with

is the only diference btwn vx hx is the one is 1.5 and the other.........
will a vx work just as well as the hx

btw i serched and found lots of info on mini me swap but none on hx vs vx

 

The VX has an EXTREMELY small combustion chamber...that I dont think is supposed to be used for any application other than with the stock pistons to save gas. Even with the huge crater pistons (shown below), the compression is still 9.2:1...stick with the HX

 

vx is low compression. 92 hp
pistons are doomed in..
SUPER GOOD GAS In them.
i believe the lobs on the cam are diff than the z6
smaller i think and then theres 1 big 1.

 

sweet. i may have another idea ... gone searching

bauley: do you have any pics of the combustion chamber?
something about these sohc vtec-e engines really intrigues me.

The VX motor is NOT low compression. The compression is 9.2:1, the same as the Z6. However, the Z6 has very slightly dished in pistons, so that would mean that the VX has a crazy small *** combustion chamber.

 

the pistons on the vx are doomed in...
and the manifold and fuel rail are way smaller than the z6 making this engine economy. i know because i have a vx i just swapped out.
by the way im selling the VX head and tranny.
PM me if intersted.

If you have it laying around why not going and taking some pictures of the combustion chamber as requested?

 

thanx for the info guys now i know now the vx is smaller will it be to bad of an idea to swap this instead fo my d15b from my dx and then tubo. should i just wait to get a hx head and then turbo?
