There are a few ways to figure out what engine you have. If your car has a stock engine, you either have a F22B1 (EX) or F22B2 (LX, DX, and SE) engine.

1. To find the stamped number, look at the front of the engine near the transmission. The number is stamped on the engine block to the left of the exhaust manifold and the front motor mount. It will be F22B..... you are just concerned with the first five numbers.

2. Look at the valve cover. Does it say honda vtec or honda 16 valve?

3. The VIN will tell you what engine you have. I am at a different computer, so I can not look at my shop manual.
