LS stems are a tad shorter than the sohc.

I think Honda had those covers for a reason...

Maybe they did....maybe they are on there so water / liquid won't fill it up to the top....who knows. If you are getting debris down there, I would say you have a different problem to take care of. The question asked was if the plug wires would work.....they do.

Honda also never put the b18b in a civic...you could go all day with "honda did it for a reason"....

Well, I like to keep a clean engine bay, so I use the proper plug wires so that water doesn't touch the spark plugs. So, the wires might work. So would a 8 gauge piece of wire soldiered to the spark plug and the distributor cap. That doesn't mean its the right plug wire. Why are people always wanting to cheap out on parts. NGK plug wires for a B18B1 are $37.75 straight from the manufacture. If you can't afford that, I would say you have a different problem to take care of...

haha.....the wires do work.....I've had them on my car all summer. I'll be cheap and use what works any day of the week.

And thats why the St. Louis Honda community will always suck.
