whats the difference between a unicam engine and a DOHC

is one more powerful? or are they just different?



Posted by: Ol'89r---------------------

A Unicam uses one cam and one rocker arm to operate all four valves.

DOHC. Means double overhead cam. Uses two cams, one on the intake valves and one on the exhaust valves.

Just two different ways of doing the same thing. The Unicam unit makes it easier to remove the cam and adjust the valves.
