SOHC. The DOHC ZC is a great motor, but theres so much more support for the SOHCs (z6, y8, a6, etc) and I think you can't interchange as many parts to the ZC from other engines, whereas you can swap all kinds of parts between the SOHCs. Might be wrong about that tho.

I dont know about any of you but I would rather have D's than B's..... More fun too.

I guess it would be an ok idea to have 2 cams..... Just incase one breaks you have a spare...

This is a very broadsweeping question.
First of all, what do you mean by "best":
Best HP?
Best MPG?
Best $$$?
Best aftermarket support?
Best tuneability?
Best for boost?
Best smelling?

The point is, you should know what your goals and budget are before deciding on a motor.
