Default Pushrod enigines...

Stop calling them overhead valve, all engines have overhead valves!! Say Push-rod. I'm wondering about "Cam-In-Block" and "Cam-In-Head" as the new terminology.

who cares? they have been known as OHV and OHC motors for years. Make up all the terminology you want but know one will know what youre talking about when you use it. lol

Accepted terminology is OHV; OHC . . .

Don't think you'll find many converts, but good luck.

I only felt it was fair to post since I spent 45 seconds of my life reading this thread.

If the manufacturer calls it an OHV, then so will I.
you can call it a vibrator for all I care.
