It's 2026, pushrod engines should be outright illegal.
No.I win the argument
>>29094473they are inefficient and outdated
>>29094476ohc came before ohv
>>29094477most modern engines use DOHC for superior output per liter and better fuel economy OHV is solely used to save money
>>29094479>OHV is solely used to save moneyNo it's about packaging. A 6.4l hemi is smaller than a 5.0 coyote
All RX7s should be swapped with piston engines and roturds made illegal.
>>29094489bullshitit's done to save money for the manufacturer, and no other reason, packaging benefits are incidental stellantis is living on borrowed time and legendary for putting out cheap outdated crapthey still sell a durango SUV dating back to 2011 with basically no updates
>>29094465It's 2026, retards like OP should be outright illegal
>>29094465So what's the crime? They don't hurt anything
>>29094479>engines use DOHC for superior output per literLS has you in checkmate >b-b-but....Post more, poser.
>>29094495So we're all idiots for wanting bigger displacement engines in our muscle cars?
>>29094476I can get 40mpg out of a 20 year old pushrod V8. The V8 is the quickest and fastest piston powerplant on the planet.
Based and true
having worked on both i agree big time
>>29094581So that little V8 is going to move a 15,000lb vehicle down the highway at 90mph at sub 3000rpm?
>>29094465I agree.Embrace the Flathead!
>>29094586A 1.5l engine could do that with the right gearing
>>29094586Literally who cares about pigfat appliances lmao
>>29094608>>29094612You fatties should get on a bicycle some time. Not only would it be good for your health but it would also teach you how gears really work. You clearly weren't paying attention in elementary school.
>>29094618Drop dead /n/egroid
>>29094479>OHV is solely used to save moneyThey are also more reliable the OHC.
>>29094604Based take.
>>29094476You are gay. I win.
>>29094604But the flattie does have a pushrod...?
>>29094495There is a reason you never see Ford's bullshit modulars swapped into anything. They don't fucking fit anywhere because they're retardedly massive. Meanwhile, the undisputed king of swaps:
>>29094862Mazda's BP engine? How is that the king of anything other than reliability?
>>29094868You may want to look to the right just a little bit, anon.
>>29094871All I see is my living room.
>>29094666>They are also more reliable the OHC.by what mechanism?
>>29094862>They don't fucking fit anywhere because they're retardedly massiveEven pushroddie heads get massive once you start designing them to flow the sorta power the yote heads are capable of.
>>29094782>But the flattie does have a pushrod...?Wrenchlet detected.
>>29094904>Stevie wonder detected
>>29094477>>29094479Both of you are retarded. OHC heads are also OHV. OHV means valves in the head instead of the block. Yes, that used to be a thing.
OHC is faster lol
>>29094932No?
>>29094465do V engines use DOHC or QOHC?
>>29095123There's two heads, so DOHC.
>>29095123You only count the cams on one head. I had a Mazda KLZE with four total cams in the engine but it was referred to as a DOHC V6.
>>29095123Two per head
>>29094932ANCIENT meme
>>29095045Is that like a single alternator v-belt driving three superchargers?
