Default V-TECH head

I was looking on ebay and found a V-TECH head for $500 that is an 18b. So i thought maby a 18b V-TECH head would fit my 18b non V-TECH engine because the big thing about the V-TECH is in the head so i would basicly be running a V-TECH for a lot less money what do you guys think would it work or not or just take too mutch work to do.

Obviously, you are a noob and you are probably gonan get flamed because thats what pple like to do on H-T when they ask, seeming dumb questions.

Which, you asked a pretty dumb question.

First off, in the top right hand corner is a button called SEARCH.. it's even in red for you.
Click on it, and type in LS/Vtec, which is what your talking about and read and read.
Read about the differences between the b18b and b18c1 and c5.

After you've got some knowledge of what your dealin with, THEN come back and ask a good intellectual question.

Its KNOW....not "no." BTW, 18B is not correct either. Its a B18 and there are several versions of it (B18A1, B18B1, B18C1, B18C, B18C5, etc). Yes, you can put a vtec head on a non-vtec block pretty easily w/ a ls/vtec conversion kit. You will need the complete head, wiring harness and ECU as well....about $1k for a complete swap.

I can't believe you're considering paying 500 for a vtech...I can get you one for a lot cheaper then that. I can prolly find you one for like 30 bucks

This will help a lot too.

When I read through what you have up there, my first impression is you are looking at a genuine FAKE vtec <u>valve cover</u>, used by ricers to make others think their car has some work invested into it, yet it's still slow as hell.

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by top teg &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">i thought maby a 18b V-TECH head would fit my 18b non V-TECH engine because the big thing about the V-TECH is in the head so i would basicly be running a V-TECH for a lot less money</TD></TR></TABLE>

Now, if you are looking at a genuine vtec valve cover, you're not understanding the concept of vtec. There are some good videos explaining the system itself (I'm thinking howstuffworks, too lazy to link), and there are conversion kits from Gold Eagle if you would like to go this route. My biggest recommendation is spend your first week or two reading/searching on this site though, as stupid questions will often go unanswered and turn into flamebait.

Honestly, my suggestion is to just mess with the little stuff. Intake, header, exhaust, and continue until you learn more about your car. Read as much as you can too, using sites such as H-T, team integra, and even howstuffworks. This way you will know what you are doing and what is possible before you start breaking your bank. I know I jumped into things too fast and I've wasted thousands of dollars on stupid ****. At least you still have time to gain the upper-hand.

With that, welcome, and good luck with your Integra.

PS - Spelling and grammar count here, most people don't consider (or approve) of the use of internet "slang" such as yo, ppl, no (vs know), etc. Hopefully that will slow down the future flames for you.
