Its a SOHC. Among many differences, the DOHC says 'DOHC' on the valve cover. There aren't any DOHC Accords stock in the US., but you can swap a H22A DOHC prelude engine directly in.

Are you sure????? about no dohc stock here. I though a while back like ether a 5th gen or a 4th gen came witha dohc engine stock. they called it a type r or si.????? maybe im wrong but I thought it was in limited production. i know that they make a DOHC f22(JDM). Its like 160 hp and 150 tq. that be neat plus its pretty cheap to buy like less than 1000 for it. hmmmm sounds alike a good idea if I can locate one. Just sucks to have to make my header custom fit it. hehe oh well.

I said in the US. There was an Accord with the DOHC f20b like Stefan said. Not sold in the US though.
