What engine do I have? and does it have VTEC?

Here's how to find out:

1. Look at your engine, specifically here. There's a code there... some numbers and letters.

2. Go here and look it up.

Its hard to tell what kind of motor you have when it is covered in red paint but it looks like you have a 1.6 SOHC NON VTEC

Just to add to the post, this is what you look for when looking for VTEC specifically..

Does anyone know where the casting numbers are on the head, so I can tell is its a vtec head or not? the block says D15B7.. but the valve cover say VTEC.

its actually vtec, you can tell by the vtec solinode and having the spark plugs in front. all D15-D16 SOHC engines with Vtec have there spark plugs located on the front of the valve cover, and like i said before just look behind it for the vtech solinode,
