I was looking on jeep.com and i saw they say some 3.7's have DOHC and some have SOHC. I never knew anything of this and wanted to make sure it was a mistake. Heres the web site.

Its the other way around for I4's. They have 4 cams and the v6's have 2. They dont have the I4 for 06 though. I guess when they took the I4's off that page they didnt take the DOHC off of it when they put the v6's in its place?

Are there I4s with 4 cams? seems like alot to me, I think mine only has two. I have never looked under the hood of a V6 libby, so I don't know about those.

Guys:

DOHC = Double Over Head Cam
SOHC = Single Over Head Cam

DOHC are generaly associated with 4 valve heads. While SOHC configurations are linked to a 2 valve heads.

A SOHC means there is a cam in each head. So DOHC means theres 2 cams in each head. 2heads, 4 cams.

But none of this answers the question, are there v6's with DOHC? Or did they screw up on their web site?
