It's only the Boss 260 that gets the DOHC.←Plus I believe the Boss motor has four valve per cylinder compared to three, hence the heads of the boss engines almost the size of the mopar HEMI heads! ;-) Im a deep down mopar fan, despite the Phoon..

It's only the Boss 260 that gets the DOHC.←Yep, that is exactly what I said, it is a SOHC if you are only looking at one bank of a V8. However, as a V8 has two banks of cylinders with DOHC per bank, with my math, that makes it a Quad Cam......... or am I still full of sh1t.....
