VTEC stands for Variable valve-Timing-and-lift Electronic Control. There are no H's in that at all, so where do so many people get the H from?

Especially an enthusiast such as yourself who has looked at his engine to notice the 4-letter abbreviation on the valve cover
Ahhh, just 'cauz I post on an enthusiast's site, does not mean I can SPELL! I suppose I could justify it is an error generated by the common usage "tech" as in "technology"........or maybe just cauz my damn spell check does not pick up the damn error. Picky, Picky, PICKY.....
