Only SOHC are true fourbangers

[B18C5-EH2]

Hey man (Rhyne -sp?) I don't think you ever specificed if you wanted to go N/A or boost?

I like playing with the SOHC engine. I had a nice 11:1CR (mild N/A build) D16A6 that I built myself, and even with stock head and cam it'd run neck and neck with B16A swaps and actually outran a few of my friends' LS swaps also.

For boost? Hell yes. They are cheap as hell to begin with, and once you boost it enough who cares if it's a SOHC or DOHC, honestly? Of course yoiu'll need more boost to reach the same whp goals as the DOHC motors, and thus the reliability may suffer some the more power you sqyeeze from it, but i'd never say SOHC are worthless.

I like them all - D, B, H, F, K - if done right they are all respectable IMO.
