DOHC

A DOHC engine has two camshafts ;one shaft controls the opening and closing of the intake valves, the other camshaft controls the exhaust valves , the shafts are located on top of the cylinder head , a corvette has a conventional over head valve engine ,, which means it has one camshaft located in the engine block and the valves are opened and closed by pushrods that ride on the cam also i dont think a Vette ever had a 396 try theese cubic inch displacements 283,327,350,427or454 its not really as complicated as it sounds later JB
