Default Has anyone ever...?

Swapped an Si vtec cam into a VX vtec-e head? I just got a free vtec-e engine and was thinking about doing this. I havent found anything online anywhere, aside from the design of the vtec-e engine, which leads me to believe it might not be possible. Any thoughts or proof?

I'm not sure if it would fit.But if it did it would probably just go slower.The ports are smaller than my snow blower.I drove mine for a year before my swap.It lost power if it had an exhaust leak.That engine package is very specifically designed and about anything you do will make it slower.The price of scrap is high right now.That's your best option.

Thats kind of what I figured when I read about and looked at the head design. If its going to be scrap anyway, I might as well give it a try, enlarge some of the ports, and see what happens. *shrug*
