    Overhead camshafts by far, less moving parts less friction, Overhead cams also allow for higher rpms without valvetrain stress that is associated with pushrod type engines.

    Overhead cams without a doubt. At least in my experience the OHC engines have been far less trouble keeping them running well. Valve adjustments, for example seem less of an issue.
