i think you mean SOHC bro...the bottom end of an EX block should be the same as the bottom end on an LX so I would think you could do it. I dont know why you would want to do it. VTEC on an D17A2 is crap I wouldnt even waste my time if I was you.
dude 10hp? is it really worth it ? save that 700 that u were gonna spend and put it towards a SF kit.. i mean be real...actually lets be cost affective... if you look at it this way.. say i low ball it and it costs 500 to do the change..... then u compaire that to the 3k for SF's kit... basically... say that 500 = 10hp so lets say u get an SF kit instead... now.. for 3k u get over 60 hp....and ability to go alot higher... in HP and TQ.... if u really want a vtec just trade ur **** in and get one.. dont convert it.. its just not cost effective or worth it for 10hp... I MEAN DAMN get a 50 shot of nos for 500 and get 50hp... do u see what im sayin? ur like one of those kids who buy 3 series bmw's and spend 50k ON making it look and perform like an M3... only to have it look like one and never actually perform or be one. lol
