There is no validity to the claim that the Isuzu 117 was the first Japanese car with a DOHC engine. The 1963 Honda had a DOHC engine, as did the 1964 Honda s600. There may even be earlier examples out there, but these are 2 that I know of. —Preceding

Likewise, the Toyota RT55 Corona had a DOHC
9R engine in 1967 and the Toyota 2000GT had a DOHC
3M engine in 1966 - both before the 117's 1968 release. I would like to remove 'the first Japanese car with a DOHC engine,' from the intro.
Does anybody know if Yamaha was involved in the 117's DOHC engine? The cam cover looks remarkably similar to the 9R/10R/18R-G engines that Yamaha designed for Toyota - even down to the raised lettering and the raised border around the edges.
