    Pushrod DESIGN is NEWER than DOHC.

    DOHC came to be around 1920 while pushrods were developed and released by Oldsmobile (Rocket V8) right around 1950.

    Word, I was talking to the guy with the engine that was an evolutionary cost cutting version of mine (which I am not saying is amazing) and thought that DOHC was the absolute 133t.

    small block chevy

    VS.

    VQ35

    um will some one show me a VQ motor making 1000hp on pump gas. I have seen it with a small block and its "old " tech.

    but i do like the VQs they make good power for what they are.

    How about maintiance costs I have a couple friends at nissan dealers and they say the vq is expensive to work on

    but i think we all know how easy a small block can be. well hell any push rod is easy to work on
    TOO BIG
