I just wanted to know if anyone has done this or has info on it because i have a h23 and i just ordered the h22 vtec head but i heard theres an oil line from the block to the head and i need to know where the hole for the line needs to be tapped. I went to the nearest speed shop that does alot of honda's and the guy isnt too sure where it would be either since he works on mostly B16's and B18's. I was also wondering when i go to wire up the vtec portion do i just wire it to the ecu from a h22 or do i need a vtec controller/rpm switch.

there will be a... THING on the front/side of the head, it's a plugged hole, this is what you tap into on the head. you tap into the oil pressure sensor place thingy on the back of the block to feed oil to the head. you can run vtec from your vtec ecu.

thanks, helps me understand a bit better, but the part where it goes into the oil pressure sensor thingy is it a hose line and need to setup a Y portion to it or is it actually part of the block

many people when doing this setup always forget to hookup IAB. everytime someone comes to me askin why does it not running right. after numerous diagnostic, it turns out that there IAB is not hooked or the VTEC is not ground. DOUBLE CHECK. nough said.

thanks, but right now i'm just trying to get it so that the head doesnt get messed up, obviously you can run the head with out the vtec running but if you dont hook up the oil lines right then you spent all your money on nothing
