Default SOHC ?
I know nothing of the locations on the SOHC. Is there one cam located on both heads? I am use to the old school cams where it is placed in the middle of the block pushing the pushrods up and down [8D]

Yes, SOHC stands for Single Overhead Cam. There is one camshaft per head for a total of two camshafts on your car. They are right above the valves instead of using pushrods like you are used to.

yea, two cams per head is DOHC or Dual Overhead Cam

They are the Cobras or 4vs and are a pretty packed cam.
