Cams don't make a difference. The Viper is an 8L... it only has ONE cam. It has pushrods. You can have as big a single cam as you want. The Accord 3L is a SOHC. Mecedes Benz's 5L V8 is SOHC. Displacement has no bearing on how many cams you need. As long as something is opening and closing the valves.

Rep Power: 0 Thanks you all answered my quesiton, i was more so asking if a car company, could produce a SOHC 2.2 engine so that it would be more fuel efficient, particularly domestic. my example was a sunfire, and i am just thinking of ways they can make their sunfire more fuel effiecient with a similar liter engine. I think I'm on the right track.
