Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

Fortunately i'm swapping my non-vtec head for a vtec one as we speak. The codes are different but not by much.

Non-vtec or d17a1: PMR-HA-8
Vtec or D17a2: PMR-HA-3

Hope this helps.

Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

Yeah they are not that different but why I ve asked this question was that I wanted to throw in a Vtec or D17a2: PMR-HA-3 crower cam into my PMH-HU3 maybe by knowing what these numbers mean I can have more info....

Does anyone know what these numbers and charecters stand for?

Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

bores are the same cranks and rods are where main differences lie but as the head codes are kinda the same I taught that the crower cam would fit......

Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

I would contact crower themselves and ask since the rocker arms may differ or not. You could also regrind your stock cam if the crower cam won't fit. Good luck I never heard of this engine. What country are you from?

Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

Crower also probably never heard of this engine too as USDM market only d17 was realeased no d16 after 2001... So I did ask them via e-mail if this kinda cam would fit to my civic but never got a response what else should I do guys?

Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

Perhaps by a d17 vtec cam off here or from europe somewhere. I know boilermaker was selling his pretty cheap and compare that to your cam and that should give you your answer.

Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

Let me know if Justin doesn't want to send to Turkey. It might be cheaper for him to get it to my US-style addy in the UK, and the I bounce it down to Turkey from here. Ya'll are part of the EU right? So customs fees shouldn't be that much of an issue.

Re: Honda d17a2 head code????

Wer are part of the eu on the customs base and the fees are normal but nevertheless I have a cousin down in Newyork city I will get the full adress and have him send it there and so that she can send it to me directly or if she is coming over here then she can bring it with her self on the plane....

If not I ll let you know speedfoos and I ll let him send the item to you if it is not to much of a hassle....
