Can anyone ID this Valve Cover?

By teal_dx
- Mon Oct 26, 2009 8:42 pm #152877 It's from an older engine... and there is a PG7 stamped on the underside. I googled PG7 and it says that's the ECU for a DOHC ZC.
Someone else said it was from an 80's integra...
Is this a DOHC ZC valve cover?

Then some of them have the logo on top like this:

- Mon Oct 26, 2009 9:06 pm #152885 Maybe they both are ZC VC's. Just like how the 92-93 z6 VC just says HONDA and the 94-95 z6 VC's have VTEC on them.

I thought that too, but each one bolts to the head in different locations. One had the 4 bolts on the outer edge, the other one like mine has them closer to the center.

No DOHC's here, only SOHC :thumb:
I bought this off some guy for cheap to try out some paint on.

i was under the impression that the 92-93 z6's didnt have vtec and thats why it wasnt on the valve cover, thats what i was told. but yea the logo position could change from year to year, the rest of the vc looks the same. we have two of those integras in a local junk yard.

your not building a dohc zc are you?

- Tue Oct 27, 2009 3:15 am #152949 I found it weird that they would change how/where they bolt to the head... you never know what's right/incorrect on google images these days...
thanks for clearing it up everyone :thumb:
