The four-valves-per-cylinder are Vee-inclined at an included angle of 56 in a pentroof-shaped combustion chamber. Valve diameters are 33 mm for intake and 28 mm for exhaust. There are three cams and three rockers per pair of valves. The cams have different profiles and lift amounts. On either side are "primary" or low-mid-speed cams, flanking the lone "secondary" or high-speed cam. Obviously the secondary power cam has a wider opening period and a higher lift: a 90 overlap and a 10-mm lift, which is indeed similar to those of a Group A racing Civic. The primary valves have milder timings and smaller lifts, the latter 8 mm and 5 mm. One of these primary cams, the 8-mm lift one, operates its intake valve first via rocker arm, letting mixtures in and generating swirl motion. The other 5-mm lift primary cam-valve combination follows 10 later, further filling the combustion chamber.

just go to the honda dealership and ask for valves for the 94 del sol DOHC VTEC, or for the 99 civic Si VTEC. both came with B16's, and came in the states.

As far as the b16 all generation valves should swap right???
