Overhead valves open vertically from the head into the combustion chamber. Overhead valve engines use a system of lifters, push rods, and rocker arms to operate the valves. The cam on an overhead valve system is adjacent to the crankshaft, and the lifters, push rods and rockers work together to operate the valves. Overhead cam engines position the camshaft directly above the valves. In that position, there is much less weight of the valve operation mechanism, resulting in a potentially higher engine operating speed.
Displacement and HP have no direct correlation because of numerous engine design features, but the only engine I know of that is 179cc is the Chinese-built PowerMore engine.
dont rev the engine to much dont rev the engine to much
If it's a Kawasaki 179cc on a lawnmower, it seems the answer is 6hp. Check out this web site. http://www.masseyferguson.com/agco/mf/INTe/Products/GroundsCare/rotarymowers.htm
It is the gap between the rocker arm and the push rod or valve in the head of the engine. How much it is varies with each model of engine.
Do you mean Dual Overhead Cam and Overhead Valve. Overhead Valve has the camshaft positioned just above the Crankshaft in the block of the engine and uses Pushrods to actuate the valves. Overhead Cam(Single Camshaft) and Dual Overhead Cam(Twin Camshafts) have the Camshaft positioned in the head directly over the valves. As a rule of thumb OHV(Over Head Valve) engines have smaller and shorter heads while SOHC(Single Over Head Camshaft) and especially DOHC(Dual Over Head Camshaft) engines have much wider and taller heads to fit the camshafts and their accessories. Sometimes you can tell by spark plug positioning but this is not always accurate. Most OHV have the spark plugs on the sides of the heads with the distinct exception of HEMI heads. DOHC usually have the plugs in a North-South(Up-Down) arrangement.

Ford Escorts use an inline 4 cylinder overhead cam engine, not a rotary engine.
how much torque for a Chevy Z71 350 vortec engine valve cover
same as engine vacuum.
That depends on which 4.0 liter engine you have and what vehicle it is in ( Ford Mustang , Ranger , Explorer , and what model year ) The 4.0 liter EFI ( which is an overhead valve / pushrod design engine , the 8th " character " of your VIN is an " X " or The 4.0 liter , SOHC , V6 engine ( the 8th " character " of your VIN is an " E " or possibly a " K " if it is a flex fuel engine A little more information please
