I am depressed now. I was going to race SlowV6's cavy and whoop his ass, but now I am not sure if the protege can get out of it's own way.

to answer the first question (even tho u know what motor it is now), if u look at the timing cover u can tell if its covering one big cam gear (sohc) or 2 (dohc)

but all dohc motors do have two cam gears. only some don't have both gears driven by the timing belt but it would still be apparent that there r two gears.
