umm, you bought an engine before knowing what it was?? What car is it from? It looks like a 96-98 civic engine. Look to the left of where the headers were. There is normally an engine code there.

If it's from an Si civic, sure. But I think he's full of s***. Look for the engine code. That will tell you. Do you have it already? The 92-95 civic Si was the only Si with a SOHC engine. It was the D16Z6. Your valve cover looks like the valve cover that came with 96-98 civics (one engine model being the D16Y8). After 95 the Si Civic had DOHC engines.

Not that bad. It's a VTEC. It should have 127hp. Oh, and it's from an EX
