Single Over Head Camshaft

SOHC is the development of a mechanical valve OHV,
In this system the location of the camshaft (Noken) lies above
cylender head. so lifter and push rod is in the removed
because the camshaft is directly been able to move
rocker arm.

In the SOHC system, which is used as a link
between the crankshaft and camshaft are 2 kinds, including:
1. timing Chain
2. timing Belt

both have advantages and disadvantages of individual
including the timing chain has a construction
stronger than the timing belt so it is not in
worry about decided the connecting motion occurs between
crankshaft and camshaft (Noken) that can cause
severe damage to the valve (valve).
While the timing belt itself has its own advantages
that is the timing belt can be produced low noise
because it had no connection between the chain of
with one another as owned by the timing
chain, and timing belt also has a level accuracy of is open
- Close the valve (valve) that is very accurate so it can
produce a higher rpm than the
timing chain. It was only in my opinion only ....
