No you're right. Also, the DE pushes 155 instead of 140hp and 160ft-lb of torque. Not sure on the torque on the E, bu it's less.

Yeah, Juvenate° is right. Those are the numbers on the KA24E. Checked those numbers yesterday.

The single cam isn't a bad engine, but its easier to do anything to the car if u had the DE in there to start. Swaps are easier and more available parts for the DE...

I've read on anotehr forum too that the SOHC has a broader torque band. True, it doesn't reach as high as the DOHC, but it's more spread out.
