[QUOTE=darcane;333111]For '01, there were three engines, all 1.7L D-series. Wikipedia: D17A1 D17A2 and D17A6

The standard VTEC engine was in the EX only (at least in the US). You want to avoid this one.

The SOHC non-VTEC engine was in the DX and LX (and the more rare "VP" model). This one is good.

And finally, the VTEC-E which is in the HX only. This engine is best.

If you found an ad for an LX with a VTEC engine, I believe it is either misrepresented or has .had an engine swap.[/QUOTE. I spoke with the seller he clarified the lx is a non vtec engine. So which non vtec do i need to stay seat from?
