I can't figure out what has been discussed here.

1. All modern engines are OHV ( overhead valve ) haven't seen any cars made
lately with side valves. Even SR20's are OHV.  Just means the valves are in
the heads.
2. The discussion should have been about pushrod vs overhead cam.
3. Somebody should tell the NASCAR people that their engines can't turn 9500
rpm.
4. Any differences between motors has to to with airflow, not necessarialy
where the cam is located.
5. I feel better now...
