Re: Building a Car from Engine to Completion

Will you be able to select multiple options at certain areas?

I don't really know what you mean, multiple of what sort of options?

I mean you can't choose both DOHC and OHV for example.. what sort of multiple options are you talking about?

Oh, well if that's the case... Kind of.

In each list you can only select one thing, with each item superceding the one below (or including the items below), this is something we need to work on to make a bit more clear

Re: Building a Car from Engine to Completion

gotta love wikipedia...

The IOE (intake over exhaust) design ...

Killrob: Loady, copying wikipedia articles doesn't help anyone, I put the link here instead. Please refrain from posting in that way in the future.

Re: Building a Car from Engine to Completion

Under driver assists, say I want power steering, but I also want traction control. Will I be able to select both?
