A conventional cam has more moving parts as it is placed within the engine block and uses lifters, pushrods, and rocker arms that all must work together with the cam and the valves. By moving the cam to above the valve train, called an overhead cam, there are now less moving parts, the engine becomes more efficient (can mean more power), can reach higher revolutions per minute (revs), and generally is more reliable.
No, this is not possible.
all the civcs have a single overhead cam motor(sohc) the civic si is the only one with a dual overhead cam motor
The older ones, non ecotec are not overhead cam. they Use the cam in block with pushrods.
single ober head cam
SOHC--Single OverHead Cam DOHC -- Dual OverHead Cam
If you change the whole engine.
First of all if it is an sl1 it is not a Dual overhead cam It is a single overhead cam Either engine only has 1 t-stat
There are engines with both. If the car is a twin cam then it's a double overhead cam. Single cam has less power but is more economical.
It has a single cam. But the question is confusing. Usually it is asked if it is a single or dual overhead cam when it is overhead head cam. Your engine is a pushrod, which was only offered in single cam
Its a single cam.. it says " 2.0 Split Cam on the cover of the engine... A dual cam would say " 16V Zetec" on the engine cover.
The 2010 Lincoln MKT has double overhead cam (DOHC).
Yes
