ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Vtec head swap for non-vtec head?

    Aight. so I have a 1990 Accord Ex with no vtec. So I'm wondering if i can just go down to the junkyard near me and pull a vtec head off of an engine. First question...which car/engine am i looking for? Second question...is it that easy? Third question...does anyone have that head that they are willing to trade/sell to me? Thanks! - C-Large

    the gains are not worth it, you wont even notice anything.
    put a P12 ecu in your accord and you get a gain that you will actually notice, plus it only takes 5 minutes to do
    if you want vtec, do a complete H22 or F20B swap, there is no easy way around it

                You could also use an h23 intake manifold, will also help with horsepower gain w/o swapping ur motor out
