There are two wiring harnesses on the VTEC solenoid, with 1 wire on each harness (or you may be missing the harnesses... in that case you'll need to buy some. Junkyard is the best place to look, just get the pigtail harness.

You take those two wires, and run them to their corresponding places ECU. You only need to worry about pins A4 and D6, ignore the rest.





Alternatively, get a 92-95 EX or Si engine wiring harness and swap that in, and plug n' play.

I just gave you the instructions for how to do that...



Yea, the timing belt is different. I really don't understand, did you buy the head just assuming it would go on and not do any research at all?

Definitely a good deal.

I am assuming that since you had no knowledge of it beforehand, you didn't remove the oil jet between cylinders 2 and 3 on your D15 block. You will need to do that if you want VTEC to ever work.

you need a 92-95 Honda vx timing belt. the swap you did changed the deck height. you will skip teeth and jump timing if you don't swap the belts. the vx is 103 teeth opposed to the d16 being like 106 or something like that.
