Are the 1.6 SX Bravos DOHC?

Thanks

 

[MadGT]

i`d say yeah but i could be wrong tho

waits for someone to correct me...

Bravo, why settle for less 1.8GT BRAVO

 

[Carroll]

I dunno for certain without looking it up , but if they're 16v, then yes.

 

[Rich]

Ok cool, !! It is 16v.

 

[Tom]

Quite a lot of 16v engines are not DOHC.

 

[moje]

dont dohc mean (direct over head cams
as the cams on a 1.6 16v are above the the engine

 

[Rich]

I thought it was Duel Over Head Cam?

 

[steve]

Its Double (or Dual) Over Head Cam

I belive if the cams are at the base of the cylinder they are OHV or Over Head Valve

However i could be talking complete ****e

 

[Carroll]

True, some 16v engines are not twin-cam, (Dolomite Sprint, Suzuki Alto, e.t.c.) - but most are and I can't think of any Italian 16v that is'nt, let alone a Fiat...

 

[Tom]

Also current BMW bini, early honda vtec...

And some DOHC are 2 valve per cyl. Early (proper) Alfa TS, Fiat twin cam, 6cyls in Jag e-types...

 

[Callum]

the cams are at the base.
so in answer to your question no.
