> I thought it wasnt a type s but unless the info i was reading is incorrect a k20a3 which is a non type s according to them engages vtec @ 2200 rpm? And it says the a2 which isthe type s engages vtec @5800 rpm or something liek that and thats where mine engages so idk…ive tryed to see the engIne code but the motors stuffed in there ill try harder later today…

Is the writing on the valve cover white or red? Also what’s it rev up to? The A3 has a second intake runner or something like that open up at higher rpms that almost sounds like a vtec engagement. If it revs to about 7 grand its an a3 8 thousand something its an a2.

Went and looked at this today, engine runs and sounds pretty healthy. Could have the wiring cleaned up a little. Would need some new sheet metal on the driver’s side mount. And either fix the hood latch, or replace the rad support, def has some chicken shit welds lol. Interior looks great. Needs a grill, and a bumper to be perfect. For someone with a little time, and welding skills, would be a great project.
