Put your car's information in your signature so we know what you are driving.

I have no clue about the header. You can see if the intake manifold gaskets are the same between the f22 and the donor car (Civic right)?

The speedometer problem has been covered a lot. Do some searches. If your cruise control doesn't work when the speedometer is not working, your VSS is likely the culprit. This should also cause the check engine light to turn on as well as the D4 or S light to turn on or flash. The VSS is on the transmission in the general area below the throttle body. I think way below the throttle body.

If the cruise control works, then the problem is likely the speedometer. My 95 accord had this problem and the speed would be stuck at 19mph. You can try redoing the solder joints on the speedometer, send it to a speedometer repair shop, or get a used speedometer>

Sorry. Have a 91 dx. No cruise control n my check eng light n s light were on but I pulled the bulbs when I checked the board on the speedometer. I'm almost positive it is vss. But what my buddy tells me it is is the piece that slides n the tranny with the gear at the end, but the one I loolked up at work looks like a camshaft positioning sensor. It will kick on maybe once a week and work for about a mile then go back off. So I figure when the people before me had it n installed the new tranny they broke the connector or put a dirty one n and it needs cleaning either way I liked to take a look at it before I spend 130 on one. I can use that money for my tegg
