welcome to the forum. check this vid.out for your question on VTEC (not V-TECH!!).
https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_77259/tm.htm

Also DOHCstands for"Dual OverHead Cams". your motor has 2 camshafts. Honda also makes SOHC (Single Overhead Cams) engines which have only 1 camshaft.

Can't wait for some pics
