95 DX EJ2. Started out with D15B7 but it had a warped head. Put this D15B engine in. It runs really great and feels much stronger than the D15B7 ever did. I have always wondered what the plate block off thing was on the back side of the head. Can any body enlighten me? Is it a vtec solenoid block off plate?

idk it looks like it had a vtec solenoid but someone put a plate blocking where it would usually go...just a guess.

on another note, why is your oil filter all the way up there? unless you just have it chilling there lol

 

y would sum1 put a vtec solenoid on a 71 hp car

 

i think it is a sohc vtec but the vtec oil pressure sensor are gone,it will couse the vtec didn't work.i pace this problem before.

wow i also have this engine. i had the d15b7 b4 and my engine blew. my mechanic put this engine in and it feels stronger than the b7 also. but i never thought it was the jdm one b/c i never saw a solenoid.

 

so someone had a vtec solenoid on this engine?? which makes no since sence its a 1.5 4 speed d15b1\2.....
