as far as I know all honda motors ARE interference motors. Sorry for the bad news.

Sohc's are supposed to be interference motors also, but I've seen people snap t-belts and just replace the belt and the car runs fine, I guess you can just get lucky sometimes.

i guess i will just throw a new timing belt on and see what happens...If anything I probably just bent some valve right (wouldnt hurt the bottom end would it)? When it happen it didn't make any crazy noises just shut off immediately.
