No, not all VTEC capable engines have the "VTEC" covers or other labeling to identify them.
Knowing what VTEC means is more imprtant.
For brevities sake, VTEC simply means: variable valve timing and lift, electronically controlled. Whew!
What that means is better performance and reduced emissions with greater reliability to the consumer, meaning you: the driver.
Tell us about the car: year, make and model with eingine type and we will hopefully be able to tell you if that particular engine is VTEC.
I hope this helps.
