Default RE: Ive Been Told Ive Got A SOHC, but 16 Valve

i decoded my vin number and it says




Year: 1998
Style/Body: Sedan 4D

Make: Dodge
Engine: 2.0L I4 SFI

Model: Neon Highline /R/T
Country of Assembly: United States

and ive heard from everyone that the Sports editions has the DOHC

and like i said my sisters car says "12 valve SOHC"
and my just say "2.0L 16 valve" so not all are 16 valve

the cold air intake is aluminum but thats aftermarket as you know.

You put question marks after it though

Where does your sisters car say "12 valve" at?

ive never heard of a 12 valve on a four banger 'logically' it could only be 8v or 16v and all neonsare 16v
