Honda has finally made a DOHC version of its venerable 3.5-liter V-6 and it makes... no more power.

This spurs the Carmudgeons (in a post-lunch coma) to a discussion about head design: why are two cams worth it when you only have two valves? Why did Honda drop VTEC from that V-6 in favor of infinite cam phasing?

What is cam phasing, anyway?

And why use a V-6 instead of a straight-six when it uses twice as many cams? Or a supercharger and a turbocharger (hello, Lancia Delta S4.)

This episode is all about difficult-to-comprehend engine-building decisions, digested and discussed in terms we can all understand. Hopefully.
