Not Ranked
We (ERA) have done several SOHC-engined cars. The engine fits through the hood opening with a little care. What is problematic (for me) is that the footboxes must be shrunk quite a bit to fit the engine, the pedals must be moved over a couple of inches, and the dead-pedal eliminated.
The only car that I actually drove had a big cam in it. Not much torque (relatively speaking) until about 4000 rpm, until all heck broke out. Scarey to drive, but I'm a wimp.
